Smart phones get their smarts from open source
,----[ Quote ]
| My blogomaniac buddy Alan Shimel recently posted
| a piece arguing that Android, the open source
| darling of the mobile world, looks pretty small
| against the elephantine overall mobile market
| whichodence-droid comprises mostly un-smart
| phones. Despite that, he points out that
| recently open sourced Symbian "is a major force
| in the traditional handset OS market."
| Substantiating the point, Tony Bradley writes
| for PC world, "Symbian has nearly as much market
| share as the rest of its competitors combined--
| including the iPhone, with more than 330 million
| Symbian smartphones in use."

| Google's attempt to trademark the term "Nexus
| One" for its Android smartphone has been
| rejected by the U.S. Patent and Trademark
| Office, as it was deemed too similar to a
| related term.

| Now all we need is a Maemo 5 port of Gnumeric
| for spreadsheets. Since thereâs already a
| version for previous-gen tablets that
| shouldnât be too hard, should it?
|
| As stated off the top of the post, this is
| but a taste of the wondrous FLOSS apps
| available for the N900. If thereâs something
| specific that youâre looking for leave me a
| comment below and Iâll see if itâs availableâ
