Windows Stationary Usurped by Linux Android, Moblin
,----[ Quote ]
| LG announced that more than half its new
| smartphones will use Android, the common
| operating system among the Nexus One, Droid,
| G1, and so on.
|
| Windows Mobile seems like Windows Stationary,
| as Microsoft's Version 7 of its operating
| system seems to be MIA. In the interim, the
| business ecosystems of the iPhone and Android
| and even Moblin continue to grow and perhaps
| flourish. Capturing huge marketshare is what
| Microsoft is all about, so I find it head-
| scratchingly strange that Windows Mobile is so
| far behind.

Why arenât Linux phones using SyncML?
,----[ Quote ]
| As you would correctly guess Exchange and
| the accompanying ActiveSync are proprietary
| software, and though you may not have heard
| of SyncML (unless youâve read my previous
| blog) it is the exact opposite of Exchange
| â that is, a platform-independent and open
| standard for synchronizing data. To be
| crystal clear, SyncML has been partially
| realized on the N900 (Exchange is fully
| supported out of the box) but is lacking a
| key feature. From the Maemo Sync Wiki:
|
| The N900 provides SyncML over Bluetooth
| and USB but not IP.
