At this point Windows Phone 7 is only compatible with the Qualcomm Snapdragon smartphone chipsets, but it appears that Microsoft's promises to extend the platform reach will finally be delivered on. A leaked roadmap suggests that Nvidia will be entering the WP7 game in 2013. To achieve this, the company will be introducing a whole new branch to its System-on-a-chip lineup. The new chipsets are codenamed Grey and they will be combining processing silicone from the Tegra range with radio solutions provided by Icera.

2013.. I guess that's good news... assuming Microsoft keeps flogging Windows Phone by then and hasn't lost interest and moved focus to some other market.

I don't think so, remember how long it took for Android to take off?

I think MS is in for a much longer run and they can easily afford to sink $$$$$$$$$$ to compete, because presence in mobile space is very essential for any company in the longer run.
