Nokia's Linux OS to support 3G
,----[ Quote ]
| Nokia has revealed that the next version of its Maemo internet-tablet
| operating system will support 3G cellular connectivity.
|
| Maemo is the platform used in the Finnish manufacturer's internet-tablet
| series, the latest iteration of which was the the N810. On Wednesday, Nokia's
| open-source chief Dr Ari Jaaksi told the audience at an Open Source In Mobile
| (OSIM) event in Berlin that Maemo 5 would include support for high-speed
| packet access (HSPA), a standard sometimes described as 'super-3G'.

| Nokia’s little Linux-based, open-source darling has really blossomed into one
| fine looking platform. And, as the Maemo platform that powers Nokia Internet
| Tablets, like the Nokia N810 Internet Tablet, again grows too big for its
| britches, Nokia will have to release newer versions of the Linux-based mobile
| platform.

Nokia looks beyond Symbian to Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| With a 47.9 percent stake in Symbian, the leading mobile platform that it
| co-founded in 1998 and which today powers some 206 million mobile phones,
| Nokia has long championed it at the expense of rival platforms such as Linux.
|
| No longer.
|
| The mobile-phone maker is increasingly selecting Linux for Internet-enabled
| mobile devices, with its CFO declaring of Linux, "It's going to be terribly
| important."

Nokia and the battle for open source's soul
,----[ Quote ]
| The Finnish giant had, until now, kept out of the major alliances being
| formed in the mobile Linux space — the LiMo Foundation and the Google-led
| Open Handset Alliance (OHA) — because it could afford to. Enjoying 40 percent
| of the global handset market, and holding the largest stake in the
| market-leading Symbian platform, Nokia did not have to be quite as reactive
| as other manufacturers when it came to the open-source revolution. It was,
| however, inevitable that it would join the revolution and, after a suitable
| period of observer status, it chose the right time to do so.
