Linpus (MeeGo Linux-Based) OS For Tablets Very Touch-Friendly
Linpus are known for developing light-weight Linux-based operating systems, mostly for netbooks and tablets. Linpus are gearing up to showcase their newest tablet solution at the upcoming MWC in Barcelona. The OS is based on MeeGo Linux, a Linux-based open source mobile operating system that sees its roots in both Intel Moblin and Nokia Maemo soil. It’s optimised especially for touchscreen operation on tablets and that is fairly evident by nice large buttons / icons, as well as a large and spacious on-screen keyboard. It seems to borrow some stylings from Android with its similar home screen and the widgets look sharp and relevant. The OS is supposed to run well on low-power Intel Atom chips – you’ll see a quick 14-second boot on an Atom-powered tablet in the video after the break. The operating system will be able to run a number of MeeGo apps, including Fennec (Firefox mobile beta) web browser, full versions of Firefox, Google Chrome and various other browsers. The built-in media player borrows styling from iTunes and will handle internet radio and YouTube video fine. We’ll surely hear more about this soon as MWC quickly approaches.
