Intel has just started an open source software project for mobile devices. The MOBLIN project.

Linux Intel

The Moblin project comprises a Linux kernel, UI framework, browser, multimedia framework, and embedded Linux image creation tools, along with developer resources such as documentation, mailing lists, and an IRC channel.

Oh and BTW all projects are focused on Intel Architecture. :-)
