MeeGo for Mobile Devices= Maemo + Moblin - Not a 9000 Year Old TV Alien Character

First things first: This is not an off-topic blog item referring to a US TV show about a 9000 year old alien who crash lands on earth. 🙂

Intel’s answer to the mobile internet device platform question is their Linux-based Moblin (with, apparently, some help from Canonical of Ubuntu fame). Meanwhile, Nokia took a look at their aging Symbian S60-based high-end smartphones and decided their futre was Linux-based too. Their platform is called Maemo and is found on their current N900 phone as well as the older N700/N800 internet tablet devices.
