Intel and Nokia partner on future mobile devices

Intel and Nokia have entered a partnership to develop a new class of Intel Architecture-based mobile computing device and chipset architectures. The Intel and Nokia effort includes collaboration in several open source mobile Linux software projects. Intel will also acquire a Nokia HSPA/3G modem IP license for use in future products. The companies plan to develop a variety of new hardware, software and mobile internet services but did not disclose any specific planned products.

The collaboration includes technology development and cooperation in several open source software initiatives in order to develop common technologies for use in the Moblin and Maemo platform projects, which will deliver Linux-based operating systems for these future mobile computing devices.

Intel and Nokia have further signed an agreement that will enable Intel to license Nokia’s HSPA/3G modem technologies. The Nokia modem licence will enable the company to extend chipsets incorporating Nokia’s modem technologies across its mobility offerings in the future.
