CTIA,US, September 29, 2005 - Jataayu Software (Jataayu), a leading vendor of mobile device

MontaVista's Mobilinux Open Framework is a program designed to increase the adoption of Linux

With Linux becoming the operating platform of choice for handset manufacturers requiring a robust
and high-performance operating system, Jataayu has been closely working with MontaVista and is
targeting to deliver its messaging and browsing solutions including MMS, IMPS and Mobile browser
solutions on Mobilinux 4.0 by the end of the year. 

 

 "We are excited at the opportunity of extending our partnership with MontaVista by participating
in the Mobilinux Open Framework. By extending our involvement in the MontaVista partner eco-system,
Jataayu can effectively address the requirements of Mobilinux enabled hardware platform vendors and
ODMs looking to quickly introduce full-featured, multimedia mobile devices in the market",
commented Anil Krishnan, GM-Marketing, Terminal Solutions, Jataayu Software. He further added that,
