It's nice to have a second source ;)

Really? Don't SAM7's and LPC's peripherals have different software
interfaces? DMA is a big one.


Sure - the BSP/HW abstraction module takes care of that, and relative
to the rest of the code that's a tiny piece and actually pretty simple
to rewrite. But you're right, the details of direct hardware access
is obviously different, although the concepts are very similar and if
you've done it once, porting the BSP is not that difficult.

Granted there may be situations where you have extreme requirements
on timing, and need to play around with single instructions to make
things work, but I have never had such requirements. That little ARM7
at 47MHz is plenty fast for my apps :)
