Unless someone takes up the project to port DSL to handhelds, I seriously doubt any movement in that direction will be done, mostly because not everyone has one. The main difference is the cpu architechture, most of the handhelds are ARM, while most PC's some variant on the x86 - which DSL is the target of. So all the stuff would have to be recompiled, not to mention the gui applications would probably have be changed/reconfigured to fit the screen size. I wouldn't even know about the boot process and the other hardware used in a handheld (DSL uses the knoppix hardware detection).
Best bet is to look at an existing source for this, such as handheld.org
i.e. See http://handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/SupportedHandheldSummary
