Linux vs Windows - Conquering a Windows Based World

Verizon has just announced that Linux will be its mobile operating system of choice, and will start delivering Linux based phones in 2009.  Kyle Malady, vice president of networks, also states that this does not preclude  Verizon from selling phones based on other OS’s, notably the Google Android and Blackberry. A quote from My Malady.

“We’re not adopting Linux to the exclusion of others, and will continue to support an agnostic approach, which is best for customers,” 

I am a current Verizon customer and have been very pleased with the existing service and Blackberry phone.  I can’t wait till 2009 to try out the new Linux-based phone!
