Do you think M$ would allow one of it's "partners" to write SW for Symbian ? Or Linux ? Or something like the mystical OS5 ?
Well last I heard was that a "player" for Symbian was in the works.
OS5 is not even in a planning state yet, but I guess a player will come to OS4.x´soon after it's released.
I tend to trust Fleecy and what he has told me untill now have been quite positive (and true).
I don't think M$ will buy Amiga in any near future. They really doesn't have any reason to do so.
I don't think Amiga are more involved with M$ than many other companies are, theres partnerships all over.. Everyone is partnering, not that it means a lot.
I believe Amiga when they say that this is just the first move. They need to get a product out, to create a revenue and when m$ are offering them that chance they couldn't afford to say no.
M$ are also in a situation where they desperately need content for their mobile OS's. They can't afford to loose another battle in that area. They have had great problems competing with Palm and the Smartphone doesn't look as if it will be a huge succes right away (just like xbollox).....
