China gets a new Mobile Operating system - WoPhone: "The WoPhone platform is built on top of a linux core (Linux 2.6). Android, the world's fastest growing mobile operating system and Apple iOS are built on top of linux core too. This initiative by China Unicom to launch WoPhone is greatly appreciated by chinese government and officials. Though iOS and Android are much popular in the western countries they are still being adopted in the chinese market. Nokia's Symbian is still the most popular operating system in china with a market share of 60.1%."
