No it's marketing fluff, taking inferences from Press Releases is certainly not a reliable source. Also unreleased prototypes and development work, whilst personally interesting to me, are not likely to be notable enough products to be worth wikifying, also issues with undue weight etc.--

But it says nothing about prototypes, it's all inference you're drawing. The quote from M Bird is just "we might be able to use this StrongARM in the future", and that's not really saying anything worth reporting here, (unless there's actually some evidence that they did use it).--

More for any potential use within
Online Media than here. In fact, the company is probably more notable than the boxes themselves, so maybe the article should be re-worked and moved accordingly. --

How about you see if there's enough material for a few paragraphs within
Acorn Computers, then see if it's really worth spinning out. Online Media was only a seperate marketing name of Acorn for a very short time before being merged back into Acorn again. August 1994 to ~Februaray 1997. Can mention ART and Acorn Education at the same time.
AFAIK neither ART (Applied Risc Technologies, formerly Acorn Risc Technologies IIRC) nor Acorn Education were separate legal entities, more operating divisions within Acorn. Online Media was a separate corporate entity (apparently company no. 02926030) which probably satisfies
WP:CORPDEPTH. I agree that a summary within
Acorn Computers would be appropriate, but going into too much detail there about the TV trial and Online Media itself could be
WP:UNDUE. Anyway, I'm not doing anything on this right now, as I'm working on getting sources to potentially dePROD Oregano (web browser) (
