I don't think the spartan 3E 100 has a Microblaze processor on it, that device is too small to create a soft-processor system that does anything useful.  Picoblaze might be an option, but that would just be for some simple operations.

The DM355 looks similar to the DM320 used on the M:Robe 500, but without a DSP.  At least on the DM320 they made some nice architecture decisions so it could do quite a bit with video, but without using their libraries and codecs it would take alot of work to bring out all the full capability.

Bagder:
With the ARM core present a CPU in the FPGA makes no sense anyway.

I figure the FPGA is then rather used for video/graphics acceleration.

Hi (after a long pause),

the CPU is definitively the MSP430F2232 of TI.
This CPU is a 16-bit device, so most of the hard works has to be done by the FPGA hardware - although it's claimed to support DSP functionality.
