It's Time

Bring back RISC OS I say. Now that's a modular OS just right for phones.

Where would ARM be without Roger/Sophie Wilson work on making a super fast BBC B addon?

Confusing

So how does this fit in with - or compete with - the LiMo (Linux Mobile) Foundation?

I notice that ARM and Samsung are involved in both initiatives.

RISC OS?

Please no! Not without a serious face lift and a move to preemptive multitasking. I admit, RISC OS was great for its time, but that time has passed and it has failed to kept up. I'd like to think open sourcing it would help, but in reality Haiku would have more chances of wide-spread adoption than RISC OS and those chances are pretty damn slim.
