Linux could be Darkhorse for Smartphones in 2012

Smartphones Add comments

Linux is expected to out pace all other Smartphone operating systems and have an annual growth rate in excess of 75%.  It estimated that in 2012 Linux will be on 31% of all Smartphone devices. Prediction made by ABIResearch.

“Linux is benefiting from growing support in the handset OEM community, most notably Motorola, but also Nokia with less traditional types of devices aimed at mobile broadband applications.” The rise of mobile broadband and the impact that this has upon device convergence and format plays into the hands of Linux.
