    SoC is System on a Chip - (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_on_a_chip) in this case it's produced by Broadcom and actually I think the most difficult thing would be getting your hands on one. The only way that RPi managed to put in such a small (10,000 units) order was because one of the founders works for them...

    If there is going to be some rubbing and chafing then surely we should add some frotting as well.

    10,000 SoC units, Or 10,000 frotting units. Take your pick.

    Yes, get TVC working and we can go viral through youtube etc. Then Adam can get drunk, strip naked and indulge himself on the street.
