MontaVista Software, Inc., today announced Mobilinux, a new product built to address key areas of development for mobile and wireless devices. Mobilinux is built on the fourth generation of MontaVista’s Linux platform, which is the most widely deployed Linux distribution in the world and the only proven Linux solution for mobile devices.
It reminds me the insane trial between the french publishing company “Editions Albert René” attacking a german company which had created the trademark “Mobilix” because it looked very similar to the ( famous in Europe ) comic strip heroe “Obélix”. The comics editor won, like Hearst publishing won against Mandrake Linux.

..some people only have money in their head..we should try it literally, see if they get smarter..
anyway, if mobile-computing is going linux, i’ll soon be able to buy such a device without thinking i just spent $150 of total $300 for a win. licence (my mobile devices currently run palmOS..which is expected to go linux with version 6)
