ACK Controls, the company behind the newly announced Amiga hardware, has held an IRC session where they answered questions and provided more details concerning the upcoming hardware. According to ACK, the promised hardware will arrive with OS4 despite the legal battle going on between Amiga Inc. and Hyperion. On the high-spec machine (USD 1500), they said: "It's faster than anything Apple ever produced on the PowerPC side of things." Which is interesting, to say the least. The transcript containts many more details, and the Amiga community is discussing the matter as well.

More mysterious PPC hardware that blows away anything before it
Actually, a 2 GHz MPC8641D would probably have better performance in real world tasks than any PowerMac save the quad G5. I haven't heard of that CPU above 1.5 GHz, but they probably have a lot more room TDP-wise in a desktop system than the 15-25W the chip usually runs at.
It wouldn't hold a candle to the new Intel Macs though...
