Mobile phone suppliers "Vodafone" and "NTT DoCoMo", as well as the producers of "Motorola", "Samsung", "NEC" and "Panasonic" announced that they will form an independent group with the idea to split the bills, to improve the quality of their appliances and of the software programs and also to decrease the number of operating systems on the market.
Like the personal computers, the mobile phones use operating systems with installed different programs like text messages or programs reading music and video files. As the technology of the mobile phones is developing very fast, increase rapidly the finances on the part the producers, necessary for the working out of these programs. This is the reason why the new programs are created so that they could be used from all kind of operating systems.
Nowadays the leaders of operating systems for mobile phones on the market are "Symbian" and "Microsoft" while "Linux", used mostly in China, has a very small position on the market. The producers of mobile phones stake on "Linux" because of its open source code, hoping to decrease the fierce competition between the companies, offering "ready to use" versions of operating systems for mobile phones and to reduce the prices this way.
"Vodafone" announced that this action would allow a faster offering of new products on the market. In this way would be created new products and systems fulfilling the needs of the clients.
