The news is out Nokia buys Symbian ( the remaining shares ) in a move to establish the SymbianFoundation
Symbian just turned 10 years old this week .. so the Finnish phone maker decided to buyout the SmartPhone OS maker
Well this is a smart move to compete with Apple iPhone and Google Android which are having strong developer programs ..
This deal will mark the formation of the SymbianFoundation and the source code would be made open source .. i guess just in time before the first android phone or iphone sdk hits global markets ..
The foundation is expected to start operations in 2009
