Nokia and Intel have become allies in a new clash of the operating systems with the joint creation of MeeGo. MeeGo is an operating system that blurs the line between a robust mobile phone OS and a lightweight netbook OS.

MeeGo is a hybrid of two operating systems. One is Nokia's Maemo, which recently appeared in the N900 smartphone. The second is Intel's Moblin, an OS primarily intended for netbooks. Both platforms are open-source and Linux-based, as MeeGo will be.
