Those prime-time TV commercials promoting the iPhone downplay the telephone application to emphasize data-rich Internet media capabilities — email, Web surfing, GPS navigation, music, photos, and video — all on a cell phone. Hard on Apple's heels, a blitz of new handhelds is beginning to vie for attention, led by Motorola's US launch of the Linux-based RAZR2 V8, now taking place. Has Linux become a contending competitive platform, pushing open source to the front of the stage in this market?

when is every one gonna get it strait? copyright infringement is when i make a product that has less than 10% change than another product. OR i steal your product, erase your name off of it and put my name on it... if they're gonna call music file sharing something..it would be intellectual property theft by distribution..(kinda like what bootlegging a concert and selling copies of the tape you made, was a long time ago...). So please tell whoever you need to, to the correct the line of thinking (FUD) the riaa has put in everyones head...thank you for your attention to this matter... mrscotty99
