Intel's Meego OS Shown on Multitouch Tablet
,----[ Quote ]
| The Meego OS will likely vie for market
| share with a number of Linux-based tablet
| OSes such as Google's Android. Canonical in
| the past has said it would come out with a
| version of the Ubuntu OS that will work on
| tablets.

Arm chief cautious on tablet PCs
,----[ Quote ]
| Mr Brownâs caution may be partly explained by
| Armâs unsuccessful attempt last year to bring
| its chips to the traditional PC markets with
| so-called âsmart booksâ. Smart books are cheap
| laptop computers that have long battery life
| and constant internet connectivity because
| they run on low-power Arm chips and a Linux-
| based operating system, such as Googleâs
| Android.
|
| While dozens of prototype smart book models
| were the focus of last yearâs Computex and the
| Consumer Electronics Show at Las Vegas this
| year, device makers were never really sold on
| the concept and few became actual products.
|
| Arm last week joined forces with IBM and chip
| companies Freescale, Samsung, ST-Ericsson and
| Texas Instruments to create Linaro, a company
| that will accelerate the development of Linux
| software for devices such as mobile phones,
| tablet computers and digital TVs.

ARM and Intel's new battleground: the living room
,----[ Quote ]
| But with the exception of some small Linux-
| powered "smartbooks," ARM has yet to make a
| dent in general-purpose computing.

Shuttleworth: Excited by Linux on ARM movement
,----[ Quote ]
| As well as making for a consistent
| platform for Linux across all major ARM
| devices, the other major advantage of the
| initiative, says Shuttleworth, is that it
| will speed up time to market for
| developers. âIf you can develop your
| software for âlinux on ARMâ, rather than a
| specific CPU, you can choose the right
| hardware for your project later in the
| development cycle, and reduce the time
| required for enablement of that hardware.â

Linaro: Accelerating Linux on ARM
,----[ Quote ]
| At our last UDS in Belgium it was notable
| how many people were interested in the ARM
| architecture. There have always been
| sessions at UDS about lightweight
| environments for the consumer electronics
| and embedded community, but this felt
| tangibly different. I saw questions being
| asked about ARM in server and cloud
| tracks, for example, and in desktop
| tracks. Thatâs new.
|
| So Iâm very excited at todayâs
| announcement of Linaro, an initiative by
| the ARM partner ecosystem including
| Freescale, IBM, Samsung, ST-Ericsson and
| TI, to accelerate and unify the field of
| Linux on ARM. That is going to make it
| much easier for developers to target ARM
| generally, and build solutions that can
| work with the amazing diversity of ARM
| hardware that exists today.
