Interesting ... don't know if this was brought up yet. (http://www.ultramobilegeek.com/2007/07/moblin-has-hildon.html)

Yup, been mentioned already. I believe the other thread also included a link to someone from Intel (a press release or something) stating explicitly that they would be using Hildon. I just hope they are "good neighbors" and you don't get the "embrace and extend" philosophy going that has ruined many things like JAVA. I am really please to see more big players embracing the IT concept and hopefully doing so in a relatively open way. Competition is almost always a good thing.

I remember reading about Intel using Hildon back in April. It was one of the major news when the Intel revealed its plans for a mobile GNU/Linux based platform.

Ah well ... worth mentioning again now that there's stuff to play with.
