Given the increased development time for systems that have an FPGA component (HW design cycles tend to be a bit longer, but not as a rule), is it feasable to have an FPGA in a system that isn't very highly produced? I know Bing is starting to use them in datacenters, so they can spread that fixed dev cost over a large number of units.
