I saw the press release for the uM-FPU64 today. It has 64 and 32 bit floating point and integer math, foreground/background operations, local peripheral control - it can control I2C and SPI devices, 9 or 23 digital I/O pins (depending on the package), servo control, and lots of other "goodies". The DIP-28 version is probably the most useful one for experimenters. It's also available in SOIC-28 and TQFP-44 formats.

I've been working on a project that needs the ability to receive NMEA sentences (GPS), read/write I2C FRAM, read an I2C digital compass, and compute distance and angle between current location and a specified Lat/Long. I've ordered one uM-FPU64 for testing and will report my findings when the chip arrives (~2 weeks).
