thought this would be an interesting (and easy) port

Just because it uses x86 hardware, it does not mean it is suitable for a port. Haiku is not a mobile operating system, nor does it try to be. The UI would be completely unusable on a phone, so a port would be a waste of time.

I also remember that many devs don't want to see Haiku on a phone because it should stay a desktop OS and that a port to mobile devices should be a fork.
