Intel to drop MeeGo OS?

Posted on Friday, September 02 2011 @ 15:01 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck
DigiTimes reports Intel plans to temporarily discontinue development of its MeeGo OS due to a lack of enthusiasm for the platform from handset and tablets makers.
Instead, Intel will focus on hardware products, with its handset platforms to be paired with either Android or Windows Phone in 2012, according to industry sources.

In response, Intel said it does not comment on industry speculation or rumor. The company did say it remains committed to MeeGo and will continue to work with the community to develop and help meet the needs of customers and end users with open source.
