AmigaOne X1000: Video of prototype of a Xorro expansion board
"Xorro" is called the slot on the motherbaord of the AmigaOne X1000. Expansion boards can be connected which have a direct access to the XMOS-chip ("Xena"). A-Eon itself is not going to develop such expansions.
A-EON's hardware compagnon Varisys now has published a video, which apparently shows a prototype of a Xorro expansion board.
