The past year, many smartphone platforms have gone open source, meaning that smartphones have become a lot cheaper to manufacture. To avoid losing marketshare to smartphone platforms, Qualcomm has decided to open up Brew and make it a free platform for dumbphones.
With this move, Qualcomm has once again won the hearts of several US operators that will continue to support the platform (it’s mostly used on CDMA networks) for their low and mid level handsets. This move will also satisfy the development community which has seen the marketshare of Brew shrink year-on-year.
