FUD Zilla had a chat with Intel at CeBIT and got to hear that Atom will show up in a smartphone sometime later this year:

Intel is still committed to release an Atom Medfield based phone in 2011 and Intel's director of Tablet divisions in Europe Kevin O'Donovan has confirmed that.

The device is under works and Kevin said that Medfield new MID chip has been sent to customers. The actual device should materialise later this year and in 2012 there should be a few retail devices available.
