Stop searching the App Store. Start telling your phone what to build.
Clint Ecker does a nice job connecting the dots, and the answer seems to be that the iPhone is using a Samsung CPU, probably either the ARM1156 or ARM1176 — neither of which has actually been released yet. Perhaps that’s why Apple’s been so tight-lipped regarding the CPU — that they’re under NDA from Samsung until the processor has been released.
