HTC may develop their own smartphone OS
News - By: pdaBlast! Staff - April 13, 2010
|



In a recent interview with Bloomberg, HTC CFO Cheng Hui-ming revealed that HTC is exploring the possibility of developing its own smartphone OS. While they would not drop Microsoft or Google platforms altogether, they might see the need to have their own OS.

There has been a great deal of speculation about HTC acquiring Palm. Cheng was not willing to discuss that possibility. A Palm acquisition would make a lot of sense for HTC, but it remains to be seen whether or not HTC wants to go down that road. With its own operating system HTC could control their products better. However, look at the problems Palm is having with developing a new OS. It takes an awful lot of resources to start something like that.
