I have found some information about GP2X here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gp2x
Apparently it is based on this SoC, so it has some dedicated video decoding support in hardware. Other than that, N800 has a faster CPU and more memory, so overall performance should be much better. Also N800 should have some dedicated hardware for video decoding as well check IVA block on this scheme, but probably it is not used yet in current version of software.
