It is significant - but not going to change a single thing. There are too many moving parts and too many players in the game. Originally, SYMBIAN started to help the 'smaller' players (Nokia, Sony, Motorola, Samsung, I think) battle Microsoft. The 'open' system was created to combat a monopoly. The Web Standards group has created a mobile working group I was interested in being a part of - but one really needs to commit HOURS and YEARS to the effort. It's going to be a tough road - I don't envy the people who take on the challenge - I might assist in various ways but it's going to be a pretty vertical climb.

Perhaps with standards we will see consistant, consumer focused user friendly UI development with resulting increased and improved premium data services available??

Keeping a balance (as with government) between multiple players to avoid a monopoly while at the same time leveraging brand strengths and best practices (open source!) to maintain a solid foundation to grow on is the goal. Let's cross fingers this is the start of consolidation in the most positive way. Dennis - I completly agree and do hope this is a movement towards real change.

Lets hope that the move is a wholehearted one.
