First Look at Ubuntu 8.10 "Intrepid Ibex" Beta

,----[ Quote ]
| The next version of Ubuntu's free Linux operating system, dubbed "Intrepid 
| Ibex," is due out Oct. 30, but the beta release is up for grabs. Although the 
| desktop hasn't been reshaped, the features tweaked just a little bit, and 
| most of the work focused on compatibility and usability (not that those are 
| bad things, by any means), there are still some neat new tools and tweaks 
| that are worth checking out. Read on for our picture-filled take on the new 
| Ubuntu.

First Impressions of Google Android

,----[ Quote ]
| Google's Android mobile operating system holds a lot of promise for 
| developers. Key features in Android include the ability for all applications 
| to work together and to run in parallel.  
| 
| The picture on the emulator Web site certainly looks intriguing. That was my 
| first impression of Android, Google’s new operating system for handheld 
| devices. The image I saw reminded me of Windows Vista, with a clock gadget 
| and some folder icons on it.

| strategy, according to one industry analyst. But before the search engine
| giant can threaten Microsoft's enterprise supremacy, most observers of
| wireless industry efforts agree that the company's open source OS platform
| will need to regain support from its development community.

Google Exec: Android To Beat iPhone

,----[ Quote ]
| Rich Miner even went after Apple's handheld darling.  "Once you have devices
| out there from Motorola, HTC, Samsung, and so on, there's a much larger
| potential market on Android than for the iPhone," he said.  "[T]here's a
| single manufacturer, it's targeted at a particular demographic, and it falls
| far short of the 1 billion mobile phones sold every year worldwide."
