I'm looking for a processor for a small embedded application. It needs
to be fast enough to decode MPEG/Ogg in realtime and simple to
interface. It should use as little power as possible, be programmable
with readily available tools, and preferably come with EPROM and RAM
built in. Even better if it comes with USB.

A PIC is too small, and a general-purpose processor like an old Pentium
probably too hard to interface and possibly also too power-hungry (?). I
looked at a couple of ARM processors, but they had only tiny internal
memories and no external memory busses (???). AVR seems right out.

What else is there?
