Folks who are looking forward to the Samsung i800, touted to be “the world’s first smart phone based on Access Linux Platform (ALP)” will have to end up disappointed since the handset will not be manufactured. What went wrong? Well, digital forensic evidence have shown that LiMo, the Linux Mobile Foundation and its pet project, has issued a statement, “just so you know the Samsung i800 has been withdrawn. Since the original project was defined back in February there have been a number of advances in mobile technology. As a consequence the Samsung i800 has been withdrawn in order to take advantage of these to prepare a more competitive Linux mobile. Orange is still committed to mobilizing Linux technology and supporting the LiMo Platform as a uniform, open source-based software platform.” There you go. Is this a big loss to the mobile world? I guess that depends on which side of the fence you’re on.
