ARM is a 32 bit device, while the other suggested processors have
narrower word width. The TCP/IP arithmetic is also 32 bits, so
there is a native advantage with an ARM. Also, a 32 bit processor
can more easily handle memories over 65 kbytes, which pretty
soon prove necessary with the TCP/IP applications.

Been there - done that (TCP/IP on AT91's).
