Nokia to cull Symbian from smartphones?

,----[ Quote ]
| Nokia smartphones may soon be shipped running the phone giant's Linux-based 
| Maemo operating system instead of Symbian, it has been claimed. 
| 
| Maemo â also known as the Internet Tablet OS â has been around since 2005 and 
| was originally designed for Nokiaâs family of handheld internet gadgets. 
| 
| Now a report by the Financial Times Deutschland has hinted that Nokia is 
| preparing to drop Symbian from its smartphones, in favour of Maemo. The 
| paperâs source is unclear.

| The N900, as we are calling it now, can be termed an upgrade over the N97.
| The device features a full QWERTY keyboard and a huge 3.5-inch touch screen
| capable of WVGA resolution (800x480). It is expected to run the upcoming
| Maeomo5 OS, the latest version of the Linux based smartphone OS that Nokia
| uses for its lineup of tablet devices. That, we believe, would be the major
| difference between this one and the N97 which runs on the more "mass market"
| Series 60 Fifth Edition OS.

Nokia turning to Android for new phone?

Nokia to release a netbook?

,----[ Quote ]
| All this begs the question of which OS platform would Nokia choose? The N810
| runs on a Linux variant known as Maemo, which includes a Nokia-developed
| Gnome application framework dubbed Hildon.
|
| Hildon in turn has been adopted by Ubuntu for their Intel-endorsed Mobile
| Internet Device Edition, while the Intel-founded Moblin project is built
| around the ÂGnome Mobile platform. This already gives Nokia some entrà into
| the world of Linux and Atom-powered devices.
