LG flies to the rescue of MeeGo

Despite the defection of Nokia, the mobile OS MeeGo is not dead, quite the contrary. The vacuum created by the departure of the Finnish giant will attract other players, not least, the Korean company LG has thus joined a group of companies working to develop MeeGo for smartphones. Alongside LG, including the Chinese ZTE.

The interest for LG MeeGo on smartphones is not new: we remember that the Korean had developed the prototype smartphone based on the platform "Moorestown" Intel used in all its presentations to the last year. This prototype, GW990, was ultimately never released. But his descendants might happen soon.

At a conference in Finland on MeeGo last weekend, Valtteri Halla, Nokia engineer and member of executive committee of MeeGo told the developers in attendance: "You see things coming out this year, very soon. "MeeGo should pass soon in version 1.2, version 1.3 is scheduled for the fall. Moorestown in turn is finally here, at least in its Oak Trail for Windows 7.

Expect, therefore.
