They'll probably run the entire gamut of mobile apps, with desktop apps more of the afterthought. I have a feeling this is more about… 'Mac Pro-ing the iPhone'?

Seems like it's about encouraging the development of way more ambitious ARM-based stuff that will tend to eclipse the x86 and 'desktop' things, on the basis that Apple is far bigger in the mobile space than they are in desktops. Maybe there's the prospect of super-powerful computers in a sort of cluster form… a dense block of iPhones, rather than a massively multi-core PC? That's sheerly hypothetical, but given the characteristics of ARM stuff it seems reasonable.
