모토롤라도 자체 OS? Azingo 인수?

공식적인 언급이 아닌 추측성  뉴스지만 Azingo社 직원의 인수로 인한
직책변경 업데이트나 산제이 자 모토롤라 CEO의 근래 발언을 통해 볼때
모토롤라도 자체 OS에 대한 계획을 가지고 있는 것으로 보이고
이를 위해 Azingo를 인수를 할 것으로 보인다.

문제는 OS 인수 자체 보다는 아이튠스와 같은 마켓과 3rd party 개발자들을
충분히 끌어들일 수 있는 기본 단말 시장 확보가 문제일 듯...

안드로이는 최종적으로 중국업체들의 차지가 되지 않을지...

Motorola hints at owning mobile OS, acquires Azingo

Taylor Wimberly on May 03 at 2:39 pm

Motorola’s Co-Chief Executive Officer Greg Brown recently told Bloomberg that his company was ready to make acquisitions to return to growth and it looks like we might have spotted their first deal.

According to a LinkedIn profile, it appears Motorola has acquired mobile platform company Azingo. The little known company (I’ve never heard of them) makes their own operating system called Azingo Mobile 2.0 which is based on the Linux platform. Azingo Mobile 2.0 already includes a comprehensive application suite including a Webkit-based browser, web runtime, Flash runtime, and full developer tools.

Acquired by Motorola.

Motorola’s other Co-CEO Sanjay Jha recently hinted at the possibility of Motorola owning their own operating system in their Q1 2010 earnings call.

“I’ve always felt that owning your OS is important, provided you have an ecosystem, you have all the services and you have an ability and the scale to execute on keeping that OS at the leading edge. And I continue to believe that at some point, if we have all of those attributes, that owning our own OS will be a very important thing.”Sanjay JhaCo-CEO Motorola

Google currently has a very strong partnership with Motorola, but i guess anything is possible.

Could Azingo become Motorola’s next mobile OS or do you think their technology might be implemented into future versions of Motoblur?
