Some folks did put Inferno onto an Android phone:

I think part of what drives the directions many companies
take is how easy it is to bring new people on board to do
the development.  It's probably quite easy to bring in people
to program on a Linux based platform, easier than bringing
people in to learn an OS they probably haven't even heard
of.
