Foundation Platform: Linux Mobile answer to Sun’s JavaME (J2ME)
Watch out! Because Panasonic Mobile Communications, Samsung Electronics, Motorola, NEC, NTT DoCoMo and Vodafone has formed LiMo Foundation which aims to promote Foundation Platform, a Linux-based, open mobile communication device software platform.
The aim of Foundation Platform is similar to Sun JavaME in which it provides a well defined architecture and frameworks that enable software interoperability across Linux mobile devices.
The move probably would not be able to compete JavaME mobile devices directly as the Foundation Profile is only implemented on Linux-based mobile phone.
However the API standardization certainly looks attractive when compared with other proprietary system implementation such as Symbian OS and Windows Mobile based operating system which probably have a much higher licensing fee imposed to mobile phone makers.
