It's interesting that Samsung were in a similar position around that time (and also had Bada in the works at the time). But around 2010-2011 they just hopped on the Android bandwagon and went all in with it, and won big time.
Which reminds me, what's up with Tizen? Are they still trying to push it?
- trm42 11y agoIt seems they are keeping Bada -> Tizen around just to have some leverage over Google. If some negoatiations are really tough with Google, they can say "hey, let's forget the whole thing and we'll start using Tizen instead of Android". They don't really want to do that but it's a good plan B.
