Palm's not the only company that isn't afraid to speak out on the Open Handset Alliance.Nokia, Microsoft and Symbian made it most clear today that they don'tperceive danger from the new initiative and corresponding Android OS,with Nokia stating it quite bluntly: "We don't see this as a threat."Microsoft was a bit more on the defensive. "It really sounds that theyare getting a whole bunch of people together to build a phone andthat's something we've been doing for five years," said Scott Horn,from Microsoft's Windows Mobile marketing team. "I don't understand theimpact that they are going to have." The Symbian folks stated theobvious: "If Google was not involved the industry would have justyawned and rolled over," said John Forsyth of Symbian. "We take itseriously but we are the ones with real phones, real phone platformsand a wealth of volume built up over years." UIQ was a bit moreoptimistic about the OHA, saying that "Generally, it's positive for theindustry." Apple wasn't as commital either way. "We have a greatrelationship with Google and this doesn't change anything," said Applespokeswoman Natalie Kerris. "They are certainly an important partnerfor iPhone."

Palm不是唯一一家不敢在开放式手持设备联盟中大胆发言的公司，诺基亚,微软和塞班今天都澄清说他们并未感觉到新的Android操作系统的威胁.

微软则有点保守，微软的WM手机系统市场部的ScottHorn说：“听起来好像是他们聚集了一大伙人来制造开发一个手机，而这种事我们已经干了5年了。我不明白他们到底想要什么样的效果”

UIQ则对OHA比较乐观，说“一般来说，这对行业来说还是有促进作用的”。

官樣文章，難道這些公司會對你說:「死啦，死啦，他們功能又強，又是免費，我們都不知怎對付」
其實受最大影響應該是symbian 和 MS，他們收專利費都收不少了
現在人家有一個免費的出來，更是出自名門，能不讓他們頭疼嗎？
