The world has been hearing about open source for quite sometime and as usual most do not know them even if it has been staring them right at their nose. Most know of the selling term Android-Based phones well then they are most partly developed on open source but from the rest it is considered to be the least open for developers when it comes to infusion of ideas. Mainly owned by Google(which is undoubtedly the biggest company that deals on the internet today), it seems that they are keeping their lips shut on some key areas of the platform, any system which wishes to use it has to go through an extensive testing/evaluation phase by the internet giant.
Other open platforms used for developing apps on the mobile market are Eclipse, the Linux kernel, MeeGo, Firefox, Qt, Symbian, and WebKit, all of whom allow free range on the use and exploration of their base platform.
