Palm Pre is also running PA and various other useful apps/libs. In 
combination with webkit there's potential for a cross platform mobile 
audio app that could be run on all the major mobile OS's.

Also don't forget Ubuntu Mobile and Google Chrome OS is looking like it 
has potential too.

I guess at some point there will need to be a mobile studio distro. 
Probably built around webkit to ensure maximum compatibility.

It really depends what you are looking to achieve. I can imagine a whole 
row/grid of devices with multiple apps on each one. Played with touch, 
some doing background processing, others doing control and others used 
for specialist sounds... Would be fun to build and play and a fairly 
unique performance at the moment.
