Google's Chrome Browser Moves Up Opera's iPhone Browser Audition Intel, Nokia Combine Mobile Platforms Symbian 3 Is Now Fully Open Source Mobile Firefox Runs on Nokia N900 Wal-Mart Prepares To Sell Nexus One Google's Chrome was the only web browser application to gain global market share last month, with all other major browser platforms showing month-to-month declines, according to Net Applications. Norwegian software maker Opera has created a version of its mobile browser that works with Apple handsets and will soon try to get a green light from Apple to put the browser on the iPhone and iPod touch. Intel and Nokia are combining their Moblin and Maemo operating systems to create MeeGo, a unified Linux-based platform that will run on a wide range of mobile computing devices. It's official -- and ahead of schedule. The Symbian mobile operating system is now completely open source, and the Symbian Foundation has released Symbian 3, the latest version of the platform. Mozilla has released a mobile version of its Firefox browser for users of Nokia's N900 smartphone, which runs the handset maker's Maemo OS. The browser is built on the Firefox 3.6 engine. In a move that could invigorate weak sales of Google's Nexus One smartphone, Wal-Mart, the world's largest retailer, appears ready to start selling the device, reportedly as low as $99.   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   Google's Chrome Browser Moves Up   Opera's iPhone Browser Audition Intel, Nokia Combine Mobile Platforms MeeGo will run on a variety of devices.   FULL STORY Symbian 3 Is Now Fully Open Source But mobile OS remains linked to Nokia.   FULL STORY Mobile Firefox Runs on Nokia N900 More platforms will be supported.   FULL STORY Wal-Mart Prepares To Sell Nexus One Price could undercut T-Mobile at $99.   FULL STORY Internet Limits Worry Mozilla Leader New Chrome 4 Browser Released Firefox 3.6 Boosts Speed, Security Nexus One Faces Growing Pains Mint Makes a Quick Mark on Intuit Karmic Koala: What's New in Ubuntu Google Phone Could Be a 'Droid Killer' EU Softening Stance on Oracle-Sun Chrome Browser Runs on Mac, Linux Nokia Focuses on Improving Symbian Chrome OS Team Aims for Speed Chrome OS Will Focus on Security Motorola's Droid Appears Strong Second Firefox 3.6 Beta Fixes Bugs Firefox Revived the Browser Market Android Phone Focuses on Multimedia Firefox 3.6 Checks for Old Plug-Ins Software Kit for Android 2.0 Released DROID Is Do-or-Die for Motorola Raindrop Aims To Manage Messages Foes Fear Oracle Will Stifle MySQL Verizon's Droid Goes After iPhone Android Powers New Acer Hardware   More on this topic...
