Vodafone shows off 360 on Linux-based smartphone

,----[ Quote ]
| The 360 service replaces the current Vodafone 
| Live! service and also allows users to back up 
| the entire contents of their phone online, 
| configure the phone's home screen and manage 
| contacts - in a similar way to Windows Phone's 
| My Phone service or MobileMe on the iPhone. It 
| will be available across the Vodafone range, 
| and to users on other networks too. Vodafone 
| also confirmed that an iPhone app is in the 
| pipeline.

Thereâs a reason smartphones are locked down

,----[ Quote ]
| Handset manufacturers and operators like Linux phones
| for lots of reasons. They like open source for lots of
| reasons. But for an industry that contributes as much
| to UK GDP as the oil and gas industry, few of those
| reasons are connected with the philosophy of openness
| that draws developers like Cyanogen.
