Nokia and Intel have announced a new partnership to develop a Linux-based mobile OS, MeeGo. The companies are combining Moblin and Maemo to create a new platform for mobile computers, notebooks, and tablets. Do you think they're feeling the heat from Apple and Google?

Nokia CEO Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo said:

"MeeGo will drive an even wider range of Internet computing and communication experiences for consumers, on new types of mobile devices. Through open innovation, MeeGo will create an ecosystem that is second to none, drawing in players from different industries. It will support a range of business models across the value chain, building on the experience and expertise of Nokia, Intel and all those who will join us. Simply put, MeeGo heralds a new era of mobile computing."
