I think the ARM Cortex-A5 is compatiable... [granted i have little knowledge]
Any idea how it would affect the price/performance? (+in its Single / dual / and quad core variants? Roughly?)

well, for desktop computing, a modern cpu and more memory would be hugely attractive.
It might even attract the interest of the Ubuntu and Android folks, and certainly would simplify
gcc toolchain issues. I would be very surprised if it isn't already being investigated, since
Broadcom has more modern ARM cpu's available.

A quick and simple improvement would be for the foundation (or one of the licencees) to offer versions with more RAM. While I understand the education target market is price sensitive I think it has become clear that the Raspberry Pi has broader interest and the limited memory is going to be a killer for some applications.
