Intel is getting it handed to them with all of the chips used in iphone,droid,n900 etc. they want to get into that market bad and the atom ain't going to get them there yet, so they are probably re-engineering something.

I would bet sometime next year Nokia will debut a phone(regardless of OS) with an intel chip in it.
First, remember that Nokia has already produced a tablet with Intel inside. That said, I would love to see an x86 compatible Intel chip in a Nokia smartphone.
