Collaborators Inject Android Into Smart Phones

Under the codename Kunlun, Wind River is teaming up with VIA Telecom on a project to bring low-cost Android smart phones to regional OEMs for the Chinese CDMA market. The collaboration yields an integrated software and hardware Android solution to help OEMs meet network operator requirements and deliver devices to market quickly. The Android software stack leverages Wind River Platform for Android, a validated software platform based on the Android software development kit. VIA Telecom provides the 3G EVDO Rev. A and 1xRTT modem and telephony software and created the printed-circuit board assembly (PCBA) hardware. While Kunlun initially targets Chinese markets, the collaborative offering provides a common PCBA platform to accommodate other markets.
