Nokia eyeing maemo Linux for future high-end cellphones
SlashGear —
... Nokia is considering using a Linux-based OS on its high-end cellphones, according to Ukko Lappalainen, vice president at the company’s markets unit.

Interesting comments coming from a high level Nokia executive. If we assume his comments are accurate, then we may be seeing some Maemo powered handsets in the not ...

... in development for years with their Maemo platform, and is more likely to use their in-house platform than to adopt the Android OS. “I don’t see anything in Android which would make it better than Linux maemo,” Lappalainen said.
With smartphone adoption on the rise, Nokia’s push to bring the Linux-based Maemo platform to their high-end smartphone lineup makes sense. A Maemo-powered Nokia Nseries might be just over the horizon.
