Yeah you are very correct Renegade, all these companies want some shares of all the mobile OSs. They just want to make sure that if any of the OS clicks with the consumer, they are the ones who have a handset running on that OS. may be going forward these all consortiums like Symbian Foundation, OHA, LiMo will form one big OS consortium.
