For what it's worth, if what you're interested in is thermal dissipation to control clock speed, the counters are useful in approximating that, but aren't as good as actually measuring the current draw. Of course, the overall current draw doesn't help if you have hotspots that you need to...

At least according to the Anand review, the memory bandwidth is the same: 256 * 6GHZ = 384 * 4GHZ I'm a little confused why everybody is calling this the 'mid range' part, considering its got ~20% more transistors and the same bandwidth as the 580, and generally beats the pants off of it...

Oh, if you make the rules of this hypothetical that you can't package your own die, then I don't think you'll find any component + PCB that will meet the physical dimensions (particularly thickness) of the micro-SD form factor. Though even if you can package your own die, thickness will still...

If the card could rely on its host for power regulation, etc., I'm certain a CortexA9 + reasonable SDRAM + considerable amount of flash could fit in a micro-sd card sized package, particularly given today's geometries. The only question is "to what purpose?". If it was exactly a micro-sd...
