Tuxtops.com holds its first Mobile Linux Software Contest,
grand prize is a fully loaded, pre-configured laptop worth over
$2,500.

“Tuxtops, the leader in Linux laptops, has just announced what
they hope will become an annual event, their first Mobile Linux
Software Competition. The company’s mission has always included
donating their own GPL’d software to the Open Source community, and
now they’re in a position to offer an exciting incentive to
encourage others to do the same. Tuxtops is donating one of their
fully loaded, pre-configured premium laptops to the person who can
create the most useful and creative mobile Linux software
project!”

“What kinds of projects are they looking for? The submissions
should:

  • Be an original idea
  • Be a new or early stage project
  • Be licensed under Open Source license (GPL, BSD, Artistic,
    etc)
  • Focus on some aspect of mobile computing *Be deliverable and
    run on Linux (Red Hat 6.2 is the benchmark)”
