China Mobile, the world largest mobile network, today announced that its upcoming OMS 2.0 (open mobile system) will support Windows Mobile, Symbian OS, and also Android. OMS is China Mobile’s own browser-based application engine (BAE) that allows the carrier to have its own online mobile application store just like Apple’s iTune.
Combining the Android Market, Windows Marketplace and Symbian/Ovi Store will offer China Mobile’s OMS phones (Ophones) a fighting chance against iPhones offered by China Unicom, the sources commented.
Currently, almost all major cell phone manufacturers have released at least one Ophone (phone that supports Open Mobile System) in China.
