| Since the vendor started life developing virtualization for networking gear,
| particularly for the carrier market (switches, media gateways, base stations
| and so on), it clearly has a background in virtualizing both proprietary OSes
| and Linux. This is particularly pertinent, as Linux is the open source OS of
| choice for vendors in the space when they want to offer new applications on
| their boxes while retaining legacy applications on their own OSes.
|
| Thus, Linux on handsets is no challenge for VirtualLogix.

I'd love to see a virtualised mobile phone (e.g. an Android) put out there
under GPL. That will create immense number of applications in next to no
time for the investment put into it.
