This is in no way faster than the Liquid...
The Liquid is using an ARMv7 (Scorpion, similair to Cortex-A8) core, while this is using an ARMv6 (ARM1176) core, ARMv7 is two to three times faster per clock than ARMv6.
Consider this as comparing a 3GHz Pentium 4 to a 2.8GHz Core i7. (The Spica being the Pentium 4 and the Liquid the i7, obviously)

I need to point out that the 800Mhz processor Samsung uses is likely an ARM11 based one, as opposed to the Snapdragon which is Cortex A8 based. While the Snapdragon has a slower clock speed it will still likely end up fast. For those who don't understand how this is, think of the Pentium 4 vs the Core 2: Clock for clock the Core 2 beats out the Pentium 4.
