LiMo Foundation, a global consortium of mobile leaders delivering an open handset platform for the whole industry, has announced the availability in March 2008 of the first release of the LiMo Platform along with the application programming interface (API) specifications.
As we announced, LiMo Foundation member Azingo, plans to launch the first LiMo complaint product, Azingo Mobile. The same day this information was published, LiMo Foundation surprisingly published the beta version of the platform APIs. This specs can be found here (deep programming knowledge needed!!!).
It looks like 2008 is going to see the beginning of what we want to call “Mobile Linux War” between LiMo Foundation and Google’s Open Handset Alliance. Things are getting funny. Have you noticed that certain companies are involved in both initiatives? Maybe these are the most clever ones. Maybe.
