“QNX Software Systems today unveiled a comprehensive strategy to
establish the QNX(R) OS as a premier platform for the multibillion
dollar e-device market-which includes everything from handheld web
appliances to mission-critical Internet routers.”
“To kick off its new initiative, QNX Software will let
developers download the new QNX Realtime Platform free for
non-commercial use, and will release source code for many QNX
applications, drivers, and libraries. It has also launched a
self-supporting QNX developer’s network to encourage thousands more
developers and ISVs to join the growing QNX community.”
“In addition, QNX Software has integrated a high level of
Linux compatibility into its new platform so that Linux developers
will feel right at home. As a result, e-device builders can now
leverage the enormous pool of Linux talent, while building their
products on reliable, market-proven QNX technology.“
