Linux The future is mobile. That much we know for sure. But it seems that the operating system world in this market is being rapidly taken over by --again-- Microsoft. The new smart phones are are using WinCE, Symbian or Palm. Linux has barely 1% of this new, smartphone market.

If we want linux on a phone, then some of us will make it happen and the rest of us will use it, just as it has happened on the server and desktop arena.

By and large people don't really want smartphones just yet, least of all, the typical linux user. so it shoudn't be much of a surprise that linux on smartphones is not really happening.
