After some years on the drawing board, Japanese mobile giant NTT DoCoMo has announced its work on a common platform for 3G phones has come to fruition.
DoCoMo has tapped up handset vendors to create the platform, which works with both Linux and Symbian phones, working with NEC and Panasonic on the former and Fujitsu on the latter.
The platform offers a range of features, including middleware, sample device drivers and customised OS modules.
The first handsets based on the platform will debut in the second half of this fiscal year.
Linux currently has a small presence in the handheld software market - according to statistics from analyst house Gartner, Linux is now on around one per cent of the devices, down year-on-year from two per cent.
