Mobile Phones and Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| Almost immediately, the mobile phone will become the primary vehicle for
| content consumption. Communication, entertainment, and information in the
| form of mobile television, push email, and software radio, among others,
| will be delivered as a software service.

| A Linux-based platform is a natural solution. But for that to be
| successful, vendors must provide a complete platform, including
| applications, that's quickly and easily configured to each
| manufacturer's needs.
|
| This is a significant shift from the tradition of operating system platform
| companies providing manufacturers with a strictly monolithic and largely
| proprietary operating system platform as an all or nothing proposition.
| Companies like a la Mobile are changing the way operating system platforms
| are provided to the industry. And that's good for everybody.
