Palmloyal is carrying an announcement that Texas Instruments (TI) will be showing two devices (presumably smartphones) running Cobalt on TI's OMAP processors. Encouraging news, but there is little mention of the devices themselves in the article. In fact, the only way that one would know they are smartphones is in the headline... They are supposed to be at a demo in France next week, so with luck we'll get some pics after that.

UPDATE:
Brighthand is carrying a similar article dated two days earlier. Their article makes ita bit clearer to me that these are just reference designs and not actual saleable devices. A reference design is, I suppose, just a proof of concept model that is available for other companies to emulate? A bit less exciting, but at least there's a device out there running Cobalt...
