MeeGo Linux coming to netbooks, smartbooks soon
,----[ Quote ]
| The folks behind the MeeGo Linux project
| launched the first public beta version of
| the operating system recently. But thatâs
| just the first step. MeeGo is backed by
| Intel and Nokia, and they have big plans
| to get the paltform on all sorts of
| devices including netbooks and smartphones
| soon.
|
| The netbook version of MeeGo doesnât look
| like anything all that new if youâve been
| following Moblin Linux for a while. MeeGo
| was born out of the merger of the Moblin
| and Maemo projects. And it looks like the
| UI is mostly Moblin-based, with a heavy
| dose of home screen widgets for checking
| your email, seeing status updates from
| your contacts, and launching apps. There
| are tabs along the top of the user
| interface for launching different zones,
| including a people zone (for your
| contacts) or a media zone for playing
| music and movies.

MeeGo project garners new industry participants
,----[ Quote ]
| MeeGo, the unification of Intelâs Moblin
| and Nokiaâs Maemo, and shepherded by the
| Linux Foundation, is getting a lot of
| support from a variety of companies. From
| hardware developers to software houses,
| from games to automotive to embedded
| solutions providers, the recent
| announcement indicates an influx of
| potentially millions of developer-hours.
| Some of the new participants are no-
| brainers, while some are a bit surprising.
| Whether itâs an effort to hedge bets for or
| against Android, or just widening the
| market potential for their products, the
| end result is hopefully a better MeeGo,
| which is better for you and me.
