After launching two of the world's first Linux smart phones, China's E28 is now offering handset manufacturers the opportunity to license its software and hardware designs based on the increasingly popular open-source operating system.
"With our technology, manufacturers can bring their own Linux-based smart phones to market within only a couple of months," said chairman and CEO Roger Kung, in an interview last week at the LinuxWorld conference and exhibition in Frankfurt, Germany. "We view Linux as a very powerful contender to the smart phone operating system software developed by Microsoft and Symbian."
