Embedded Linux soon in every mobile device?
Linux - just a buzz word, or is there more about this system which could, according to some market observers, become an established force in the mobile world?
From LinuxDevices we learn that a growing need for complex requirements for internetworking between packet-based and other kinds of voice and data networks will put embedded Linux on an increasing number of mobile devices in near future. Quote:

Even five years ago, if people had said Linux would have made the incursions into business it already has, many would have scoffed, but linux has become a reliable and respected alternative to other *nix setups. I can see it making similar inroads into the embedded OS market as well, and probably much faster, as it's now seen as a mature and stable solution.
Go linux!! Craig. |
