When the company was alive they could have been resistant to releasing source because they saw it as protecting their assets. Many companies don't understand the benefits of open source and look at it as giving up their IP and giving a leg up to competitors. Now those assets aren't worth a darn with them closing up shop. I don't see anyone purchasing the rights to buggy software for a failed device from a failed company. Might I was well the source code and make an impact on the community instead of fading into obscurity.
