AlexP:
Even if you get one I very much doubt you would be able to release open source code written using it.

TexasRockbox:
Here's a place to register as a developer at nvidia: http://nvdeveloper.nvidia.com/content/developerapplication/application.asp?handsetdevice=true

May be not agreeable to the group but if the rockbox code for the 5.5g Rockbox was closed and the FDK distributed to the main rockbox developers with an NDA would that satisfy the requirements for Nvidia?  Might be a way to forge ahead.

AlexP:
Rockbox is GPL.  The code is open and must remain so.  No proprietry/closed source code will/can get into Rockbox.

If you can get the datasheets (even under a NDA), for them to be useful you must be able to write open source code from them.

saratoga:
Try it and see what terms they offer you.

I believe you will find that to be a poor assumption.  Accessory makers need to know little outside Apple's serial accessory protocol, as they are working at least one layer of abstraction away from the PP hardware.
