If you look here Intel seems to be working on something: http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology...-atom-lincroft

Yes. The Motorola Droid X (and quite possibly the Droid 2) has a 1GHz TI OMAP 3630, which is faster in many benchmarks than the 1GHz Snapdragon.

OMAP 3630 is only faster in somethings I believe. It's the yet unfinished OMAP 4 series that will be much faster.

Freescale has i.MX515 and i.MX535
Apple has the A4
Nvidia has the Tegra 250
And, of course, the TI OMAP line.
All of these are excellent Snapdragon competitors. Snapdragon has the press drooling because they can print headlines that say "Sexy 1Ghz Phone is Sexy!" But the reality is that software is much more important than the hardware.

Don't be fooled by marketing-skewed specs.

Well there is also the Samsung Hummingbird (Almost the same like apple's A4)
It's like the TI OMAP 4 series @ 1 GHz plus and with a PowerVR graphics core like the OMAP 3 and 4 series (though a better/faster core at that).
It's used in the Samsung Galaxy S which is Android and in Apple's Ipad and Iphone 4 (though in slightly different form so apple can claim it's custom).
