The open pressure in the mobile game

,----[ Quote ]
| While this is not the first time Iâve questioned 
| Googleâs approach and Matt has illustrated the problem 
| with half-open, I do believe it is among the key 
| stakeholders in the open mobile opportunity. Still, it 
| is now being put to the test and will have to respond 
| appropriately if it is to retain widespread respect 
| among developers. And Google and Apple are not alone. 
| Any vendor that is picking its fruit from the open 
| source tree must be wary of the line between being open 
| and not.

No FOSS for Palm app catalog says Netscape pioneer

,----[ Quote ]
| It appears Palm is seeking to follow Appleâs footsteps 
| in gaining a reputation for inconsistent and spurious 
| rejections and removals of iPhone and iPod Touch 
| applications. In this case, Palm has resisted including 
| a free application because the source code is 
| attainable elsewhere.
