Current ASICs

Is there still a large market for dedicated DSP ASICs or is that being 
split into things like ARM chips and Nvidia chips now?

BITD you'd use an FPGA for low volume, mask-programmed gate arrays for 
medium, and full-custom for high volume.  FPGAs have mostly taken over 
AFAICT.  (I'm not a big FPGA guy myself.)
