Are you insane? (No offense...) (:
Yeah, the initial SDKs might only run on it, but that doesn't mean that
the code you produce with them won't run on other stuff. How do you
think Amiga can *target* the embedded market if it only runs on x86???
I have yet to see a cell phone or pda running a Pentium of any kind...
The reason the initial SDKs only run on the x86 platform is because
1) it makes up over 90% of the computer market, and
2) they would rather spend their efforts actually writing the Ami
architecture than porting it.
Once the system is up and running, then you'll start seeing the ports.
There's no point in doing anything else before then.
