Reality Check: Making mobile Linux work
,----[ Quote ]
| The variety of Linux-oriented initiatives
| and activities in the mobile industry,
| including the recent announcement from
| Nokia and Intel regarding the formation of
| MeeGo, clearly reaffirms the fact that
| Linux will be the technology that underpins
| a large proportion of next-generation
| mobile devices. In fact, leading analyst
| firms predict that between 30-40% of
| smartphones shipped will be based on Linux
| by 2015. This column addresses a few key
| issues pertaining to this growth in mobile
| Linux including the need for consolidation
| at the core level of the mobile software
| stack, the choice of Linux as the
| technology that will be common across a
| large array of mobile devices of various
| form factors and the business models around
| mobile Linux.

Android operating system to power a smarter Telstra phone
,----[ Quote ]
| MOBILE phones powered by Google's Android
| open-source operating system have been
| scarce in Australia until now.
|
| Occasionally, models from Taiwan's HTC have
| bobbed up on Optus and Vodafone, but they
| have failed to make much impression on a
| smartphone market dominated by BlackBerry
| and iPhone.
|
| That may change with a coming explosion of
| new models, featuring the much improved
| Android 2.1 version of the OS.

Major Aussie ISP Telstra BigPond shafts open source OpenOffice
,----[ Quote ]
| Australiaâs largest Internet service provider Telstra BigPond has removed the
| free open source office suite OpenOffice from its unmetered file download
| area following the launch of its own, free, hosted, office application,
| BigPond Office.
|
| [...]
|
| Our reader was outraged by Telstraâs move, which he sees as an attack on the
| open source software movement.
|
| âThe principle of the matter upsets me,â he said. âThe fact that BigPond has
| removed previously allowed open source software is un-ethical. They are
| discriminating against me, even though I pay the same as other customers.
| They are attacking the Free Software movement.â
