Bunnie is taking advantage of the massive scale of these SoC systems like the i.MX. There really isn't a lot of exotic signal line design needed to make these chips run. From my own knowledge of board design with this Freescale part, the only tricky layout would be the DDR3 RAM lines. The rest is wiring up I/O to the necessary connectors and discretes.

TI even made it easier by mounting their DRAM in package-on-package ball grid. You can find the TI OMAP4 Pandaboard schematics online and see how simple their system design is.
