Rumour has it that both Durango and Orbis are going to be based on the same tec.
Also about the APU + 8770 rumour. While i agree those are decent specs for next gen (a tad low though), im more excited about the fact that they have moved to jaguar instead of bobcat. This opens up a range of possibilities for the GPU size of the APU alone. Which makes it possible to leave out the 8770 entirely.
I would imagine this would help a lot with keeping the power usage very low.
Also the shift from older amd tech to GCN is a very good sign :)
Obiously this is all rumour though...but given these rumours making a lot of sense i would say this is pretty much spot on. The main thing to keep in mind though when discussing early dev kits is that they are usually only used to mimmick the final specs. Which makes the lone APU theory entirely plausible.
