I've done some reading about the 2700g, it seems to be a wonderfull chip,
but no linux driver exists.

It has some interesting features:

* Dual display, the x50 has only one (i think ;) ), but what does this vga
out thing do? (http://bateman.dhs.org/~richard/tmp/arm/AXIM-PINOUT4.png),
big chance this might be real dual screen, with good drivers, witch do not
exist ;)
* lcd in functions, chances are the pxa lcd out is used, and the
accelerated bits (3d, mpeg) are added with some kind of overlay. If this
is the case, non accelerated graphics will work the same as with the
normal x50.
* direct connections with the local memory, this might or might not make
writing a driver more easy. (i think it will)

Well, altrough this is a wonderfull chip acording to the specs the most
usefull feature right now is the lcd in. Because of this, (if dell
conected it propperly) we don't have to bother about the chip at all ;)

Mvg,
