If i'm not mistaken the GPU in the GalaxyS/Nexus S Hummingbird CPU (PowerVR SGX540 GPU) is more powerful than the Andreno205 GPU found in the Arc's CPU (Qualcomm MSM8255), the GalaxyS/Nexus S is apparently even capable of decoding 1080p video. Gaming on those Samsungs is stunning, very smooth even when there's alot to handle, it's almost as if the GPU still has more power left.
No the Andreno is the more or just as powerful:

I think you will have to wait and see the Arc review to know it's power but the 205 is a new design and with the new snapdragon is supposed to be pretty powerful, but the new PowerVR dual core thing is also coming out.
I think it will hold it's own easily bar when compared to the multi core chips.
As for selling your phone, if you use Ebay and Paypal then you have to pay them way too much IMO for the privilege. Mazuma is very good and reliable and very fast payment too.

I think it's going to get ridiculous and end up like PC's comparing GPU and CPU's. Quad core this, dual core that... And Intel are yet to enter this market fully but they will...

Yes best way is to use these sites, quick and fast.
I remember CEX offering me £80 for my Satio, while Fone Bank offered me £150
I'll be selling my x10 within the week to get an X8.
As your from the UK you might want to get the X8 free on O2, for £10 a month contract, you get a £50 high street voucher as well. My plan is sell the X10 for £170 (price will drop soon due to Arc), then keep my X8 till Mid March and sell it for £80 on the recycle website. So basically I'm making money for nothing as I already top-up £10 a month, and the £50 voucher is an added bonus.

I also wanted to mention the Arc's price. I alway's thought it would be able to undercut it's rivals a bit and if that Play.com price is right it has already, comparing to all the other top end handsets.
Expansys haven't put a price up yet but I bet it'll be around £510
EDIT: New video footage shot with Arc:

Se's price should be less than rivals seeing as se is a mid range phone manufactuer.

What else do you want them to do? Do you want Sagem to make the arc now?
