He even said a while ago that was not going to mess with the port of Dolphin Emulator. But maybe he try something like a PS2 emulator . Maybe in a year, have already smatphones 2Ghz + and very powerful GPUs, perhaps take to start the project.

But the thing is, ps2 and psp games are from the same generation, so to speak, and thus their gameplays, graphics and storylines will be of a similar feel. In other words, whatever game the ps2 has, the psp also has a similar, albeit weaker, equivalent. On the other hand, comparing across generations, like between ps1, ps2 and ps3, we can see completely new subgenres, if not entirely new categories, of games that were brand new and completely fresh.

In other words, if you've already got a psp emulator, having a ps2 emulator isn't going to be that much of a boost. It's like upgrading from an iPhone 4 to and iPhone 4s.

So if I had to speculate, I'd say the next project might involve the nds (3d/Xl etc). Because that will have a very different library of games, and so it will be worth the effort to make a proper nds emulator.
