It's also $20, and literally the last of its kind. Okay technically there's 3 companies selling it, but they're all "second sources" for an original source that went out of business decades ago. I can only assume there's some military control panel somewhere that uses them, which justifies keeping them in production and charging the price of two entire 400MHz SoCs for it.
