Trolltech is the company that brought developers the Linux-based mobile application platform Qtopia, based on its Qt platform. In mid-August it also used the LinuxWorld conference to announce the Greenphone, which is thought to be the first fully reprogrammable Linux phone.
Trolltech hopes that the Greenphone could help grow the mobile Linux market, by encouraging developers to create applications for Linux-powered devices.
ZDNet UK met with co-chief executive Haavard Nord (pictured) in central London to see the device, which will go on sale to developers at the end of September.








Talkback
We agree that Linux is a great operating system for Cellphones which is the reason Mazingo launched it's SIP based dual WiFi/GSM Smartphone on the platform. Applications developers also love it because they do not need to produce work arounds as with Symbian and Windows and users like it for it's ability to deliver ultra low cost communications and services worldwide via The Internet.
