It shouldn't be underestimated just how valuable free software has become.
,----[ Quote ]
| The open source community is evolving: as
| entire sectors become dependent upon projects
| such as Android and other Linux derivatives,
| there is a distinct feeling that an invisible
| hand is on the steering wheel. It shouldn't
| be underestimated how valuable free software
| has become to the embedded engineering
| market, or surprising that large
| multinational companies are now highly active
| in the development of open source projects.
|
| Take Android, for example. Not a week goes by
| without another Blue Chip company pledging
| allegiance to it. There are now several
| smartphones available which use the OS, free
| of charge and it is anticipated that Android
| will feature strongly in the burgeoning
| mobile internet device sector.

| Weâre big fans of Mobile Roadie, a startup
| that helps develop iPhone apps. But the one
| gripe we had was that Mobile Roadie was
| limited to the iPhone platform. Today, our
| wish came true as Mobile Roadie is launching
| functionality for Android phones.
