Hey,
My all previous 8/16 bit system design was never never as efficient in terms of power saving. With TI MSP 430 it is so simple and awesome. I have products last as long as twice (just minimum results are even better) . Battery lasts long then ever before. Now i am thinking to reduce battery ratings so i can have much smaller and lighter product (tough it is not commercial but if any industry expert is using it then i think the would make it more power efficient). I am looking forward for FRAM and Wolverine and have solar powered products.
Also as we are moving to 32 bit Arm Cortex M3/M4 I am excited to see performance of Stellaris. I would like to have some hands on with Eval bot.
