“There’s an active project called iPhone Linux that is still in
the very early stages of development. They have a great goal of
someday creating an open source operating system that can be a
feasible competitor to the existing iPhone OS. They are also
planning on collaborating with Android, OpenMoko, and Ubuntu
Mobile. I’m sure one of the trickiest parts of development would be
creating several iPhone specific drivers for display, multitouch,
wi-fi, accelerometer, sound, baseband, and so on, so I wish them
luck.”
