Motorola and Trolltech have announced they are working together to bring embedded Linux to a series of new phones. The Trolltech system allows a fully theme-able interface, full support for MMS, touch screens, handwriting input and full Java compatibility. So Motorola will be able to theme the whole OS to suit the phone. Apparently the new system has lower memory requirements as well. The first two Motorola phones to benefit from the new system are the E680 and A780.
NEC have also announced the intention of working with MontaVisa Linux to bring Linux to their embedded OS devices. You can read the full article here.
