PalmSource folks are basing their revamped OS on GTK. This could come handy.

Nokia's Maemo platform is Debian-based too, so it is routed in GNOME/GTK. On
the other side of the pond, there's Trolltech with Qt. They get a lot of
business (recently IPO'd), due to increasing demand in the mobile sector.
Lastly, there are 6 giants liaising to create a new Linux-based mobile
platform, which will compete with Windows Mobile and Symbian.
Best wishes,
Roy
