ZDNET UK: CeBIT 2000: MobileLinux can't compete with Symbian Feb 25, 2000, 16 :29 UTC (1 Talkback[s]) (3949 reads) (Other stories by Justin Pearse)
"On Thursday at CeBIT, the Symbian consortium dismissed
as hype Transmeta's claim that MobileLinux would establish
itself as the dominant platform for the mobile Internet."
"The message from the Symbian camp is that MobileLinux,
backed up by the hype that surrounds the Open Source
OS, would first need to convince the development
community it was a viable bet. Then it would need to beef
up its wireless capabilities. In short, while Transmeta talks
a good fight with MobileLinux, in reality it has little hope of
competing against Symbian in the emerging Wireless
Information Device arena."
