Sorry for my bad typing.
Yes, it means that. Even if both ports would finish all the low-level stuff to
make Rockbox boot on them, we still need to do the mp3 decoding in software
etc which we have no support for in the current Rockbox. That's why I forsee
that it'll take more than a month to have mp3 playing on any of those players.
But I hope I'm wrong! ;-)
