Wind River CMO Dishes on Symbian, Mobile Linux

Speaking at the Open Source in Mobile conference in Berlin, John Bruggeman, Chief Marketing Officer of Wind River, has delivered some controversial statements. Wind River is a founding member of the Open Handset Alliance behind Android, and a Core Member of LiMo. Bruggerman said that the mobile industry has been confused and misled by the Symbian Foundation announcement, that Linux phones will never be as good as the iPhone, and that many people in the mobile value chain just don't get it. His comments have drawn a response from Symbian. Our sister blog JKOnTheRun has the complete story.

GigaOM notes that later this week SightSpeed will deliver a Linux version, which may be particularly good news for owners of Linux-based netbooks, such as the Asus Eee PCs, which typically don't have the resources that more expensive notebook systems have. Check out more from GigaOm.


Oldham, England Brings Open Source To Schools

It's good to see news about continuing adoption of open source software in schools around the world. I've written before about how doable it would be for many American schools to reduce costs, increase efficiency and arm kids with Linux notebooks through open source adoption.

However, schools in Oldham, England--a metropolitan borough of Manchester--are leaping.
