I'm puzzled too. The latest wave of mobile appliances is technologically
successful and is able to run on a "clean" architecture (ARM), without
all the legacy encumbered of x86.
I'm wondering whether Intel is really interested in mobile and tablets,
or whether they want, just in case, to be able to migrate "real"
desktops to Android. Clearly, today Android is light years away from
being able to do things of a real desktop (more because of the lack of
serious apps than for architecture deficiencies, I'd say) but the thing
could change.
