Moblin Linux Gathers Momentum

"The Intel-sponsored Moblin.org develops Moblin, which was recently rev'd to version 2.0. Moblin is an open-source toolkit and mobile device software stack that is optimized for MIDs, but also supports netbooks and other Atom-based mobile devices. Linux-based MID products running the stack are just starting to be announced, including USI's MID-160.

"Announced in April, 2007, Moblin comprises a Linux kernel, UI framework, browser, multimedia framework, and embedded Linux image creation tools. It also comes with developer resources such as documentation, mailing lists, and an IRC channel."
