There's like a 1% chance. MediaTek ends up making open source drivers for Nvidia not terrible if this happens. Which is orders of magnitude more likely than Nvidia ever lifting a finger. During the potential ARM acquisition, it was all, "Nvidia would have to shed it's thorny cloak & play with other people! They would transform!" Unlikely they'll ever be more than a Lawful Evil predator, but maybe some partnership like this might spring things loose. That said, people kept holding out hope Intel would eventually make their MID chips with PowerVR gpus (gma500) usable, which would have made PowerVR in general usable. That never happened.
