S3 (and later VIA after buying S3) have never made datasheets available, but HAVE published full source code on all 3D accelerators up through the Unichrome. Their latest generation of chips is called the DuoChrome, and no code has been released for them (yet).
It should be possible to look at the drivers and code out and derive the info needed for an AROS driver. It's not as convenient as having datasheets, but you don't always have that luxury.

Tough decision. Any clue on how hard it will be to find S3 gfx info for 3D acceleration?

There's another $500 laptop out now. Check it out here. It has lower powered graphics than the Balance CN4949, but a much more powerful CPU. If you need better CPU power in your cheap laptop, this one will suit you better.
