Are there any 8bit microcontrollers available
running at least 66MIPS?

Thanks !!

Tezzaron Semi may have something, although I don't know what is their
product availability, or anything about the company actually.

Does anyone have any experience with their products?

I see that they say that their 200MHz almost 1 cycle per instruction
with hardware IEEE floating point support runs almost 3x faster than
a standard 8051 computing a mandelbrot pattern. Am I missing
something, or is this just slightly short of pathetic ? Just based on
the clock frequency and less clock cycles per machine cycle, their
8051 should be close to 150x faster.
