I have some questions about mining hardware. I'm not really going to ever be looking into any mining specific hardware, but I was wondering what items I could utilize...

iOS: Has anyone tried porting a bitcoin client to iOS? You probably would get very good mhash rates, but it would be fun to play around with.

Cyber Cortex AV: I've had one of these units laying around my house for a long time now. Does anyone know if I could mine on this and what the mhash rate would be?

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

But it gives an idea should not come to much.

For example the FPGA devices of btcfpga.com already uses xilinx chips, the Spartan-6 LX150 (210Mh/s) and the Cyber Cortex AV uses Spartan 3e ​​500K

I guess they tested other chips until stay with the 6 LX150

Spartan-6 http://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/data_sheets/ds160.pdf
Spartan 3E http://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/data_sheets/ds312.pdf
