"The Tegra line will be all-in-one, integrated systems on a chip,
containing an 800MHz ARM CPU, GeForce GPU, image processor, HD video
processor, and controllers for all other aspects of core operations
(memory, USB ports, communication) -- in a package about the size of a
dime.

The range will come in two varieties to start -- the Tegra 600 and the
Tegra 650. Both chips can run games like Quake 3 with full filters and
anti-aliasing at rates of more than 40 FPS, and will support 1080p
HDMI, WSXGA+ LCD or CRT, and NTSC/PAL TV outs."

It's still ARM based, so it should work with OM.  It'll run Android if
you want, and may end up with a slightly smaller phone, as it
integrates the GPU.
