The real question is "How little are Intel willing to sell the CPU in this phone for?". A fairly up to date Cortex-A8 ARM CPU can be had for under $5 [1] and as impressive as Intel's manufacturing base is, their profits are based on selling CPUs at 50-100x higher prices than this. Whatever happens, I think the coming battle between generic ARM chips and x86 is going to slash Intel's profitability.
