| # On the Linux front, Motorola has announced the formation of
| a cross-industry consortium to further the progress of Linux on
| mobile devices.
|
| # PalmSource, now a subsidiary of the Japanese browser giant
| Access, announced the Access Linux Platform (ALP).
|
| # A 16-person startup in Silicon Valley (named "a la Mobile")
| recently announced it will deliver a fully-formed mobile Linux
| stack by September 2006 - less than 90 days from the date of this
| writing.
|
| # Further evidence of the rise of non-Symbian players can be seen
| in the dramatic (and unnerving to some) transformation of the
| LinuxWorld Expo tradeshow. Once the province of alpha geeks
| focusing on desktop and server versions of Linux, the January 2006
| LinuxWorld saw PalmSource attend as a Platinum Sponsor. Not to be
| outdone, Motorola has purchased a Platinum sponsorship for the
| upcoming LinuxWorld to be held during August 2006 in San
| Francisco.
