A. My understanding is that at this point Intel isn't that good at making mobile chips which is what Apple needs -- my other guess is that you'd also get into some government concerns about a monopoly
Apple is the biggest player in the mobile market, they aren't using Intel chips in iPads or iPhone/iPod Touchs. Kindle Fires have TI chips in them. The best selling Android smartphones from Samsung/HTC/Motorola all use ARM chips. Only of late, a couple of small mobile manufacturers announced that they are releasing Intel-based devices along side of their ARM devices.
