Actually, that's not such a huge deal.  The cell-phone and handheld markets are starting to standardize on very few chips.  This makes sense because it's easier to obtain good tools, and you can reasonably expect newly-hired engineers to know the chip your particular widget is using.

As long as Intent supports XScale (for high end Palms and PocketPCs) and Dragonball (for low end cellphones), they're probably OK.  If they drop support for those, then they might as well pack up and go home...
