Interesting, I tried to read the article and my browser (Chrome V22) went nuts. I don't know what sort of JS wired is pushing these days but from this side of the screen it made their site unusable. Sad really. So I went to the http://arduino.cc site ('official Arduino site') and it has no news about a 32 bit Arduino. Ther is an article on Hackaday though : http://hackaday.com/2012/10/03/finally-an-arm-powered-arduin...

Having recently read about the Sony Nexus fake I find myself even more distrustful of tech journalists.

From the hackaday article it looks like it could be an improvement on the original concept.
