VMware for Mobile?

It’s been a long time since I have posted anything about BlackBerries or Mobile. Largly due to the fact that I no longer am a BES Admin, but this is way too cool to pass up.

One thing I love about my mac is that I have Mac OS, Windows 7, Windows Vista, XP, Ubuntu, and Cent all installed on my computer and I can use more than one at a time due to a cool piece of software called VMWARE. Well, soon you will be able to do this on your BlackBerries and various other mobile devices…..

BBT Writes: At the VMware Europe 2009 conference in Cannes, France, VMware has demonstrated its Mobile Virtualization Platform, which will allow mobile phones to run on multiple operating systems, such as Google Android, Linux, and Windows CE.

According to VMware, the MVP also enables phones to consume a low amount of power. In addition, the platform will allow handset makers to reduce development time for mobile phones by using the same software stack across various phone models. Meanwhile, users will be able to keep profiles for both personal and work use on the same phone.

In November, VMware, a unit of EMC, bought Trango, a small French company that specializes in virtualization apps for mobile phones
