I noticed that Bob Lunnun and Eric Boutilier (among probably quite a few others) both mentioned OpenSolaris as a viabile platform for embeded systems.
In a recent article: http://taiwan.cnet.com/news/ce/0,2000062982,20100765,00.htm it was mentioned that while the prospects of PDA and cell phones are decreasing, PDA/cellphone combos are raking significant market shares (from 30% to 70% of total PDA sold in Taiwan in six months). I was wondering, for a PDA manufacturer, how realistic (or unrealistic) it could be to bet some of his/her chips on OpenSolaris? OTOH, a Solaris powered PDA/phone which can be plugged to a TV as monitor, IMNSHO, will be one of the best ways to achieve the "network as computer" nirvana. (Ever wonder why Cisco is buying Nokia?)
