Dana Blankenhorn examines Intel’s new Moblin project and writes:

Intel has a new mobile Linux project dubbed Moblin. It includes a Linux kernel, a framework for a user interface, a browser, a multimedia framework, and embedded image creation tools, along with developer resources.

Sounds great until you realize there are a ton of other, similar frameworks under development. Nokia backs Maemo, Trolltech has Qtopia, and you’ll remember we profiled OpenMoko just a week ago.
