The end of an era for Linux mobile phones

nerdyH writes: Motorola will ditch its MotoMAGX Linux stack and UIQ Symbian stack, in favor of Google's Android Linux/Java stack and Windows Mobile 6.5 and 7, it announced today. The news comes after five years selling millions of Linux phones in Asia, and after a year during which many of Motorola's top U.S. phones used the homegrown Linux stack. Motorola's current Linux phones in the U.S. include the RAZR2 v8, E8, EM30, U9, ZN4, and ZN5.
