Hot damn, Docear is pretty cool! I love the bibliographical support!

Mind you, I wouldn’t be parted from my cross-platform faves, Notebooks (Win/Mac/iOS) and OneNote (Win/iOS/Android/Web and via Outline+, Mac).

In principle you could run Docear on various mobile OSes using a JVM - in practice it would probably die a horrible death. And let’s face it, the interface isn’t exactly optimised for a smartphone ;-)

Scrivener is also available for Linux (beta, free):

It’s been a while since I last tried it but I remember having no problem transferring files between Windows and Linux.

Of the other features you mention I would say that ‘intelligence’ (Devonthink) is the least widely available. If you can put that aside, you should be able to find quite a few options. Check out Notecase Pro (most developed) http://virtual-sky.com/ and Outwiker (least mature) http://jenyay.net/Outwiker/English
