ARM would come up with dual core processor cores to power smart phones by 2010. Vendors such as iPhone and Palm currently use Arm cortex 8 core in their smartphones.
According to ARM "The A8 is just a single core while the A9 will be dual-core, all the way up to quad-core, to give smartphones an even bigger performance boost". As the smartphones are becoming increasingly demanding in terms of functionality, the software those phones run on gets increasingly sophisticated.
However, one issue to watch would be the power efficiency of A9 as compared to A8.
