Motorola Hints At Its Own Mobile OS, Acquires Azingo

After rumours of HTC contemplating their own OS, it seems Motorola may also be heading back into the OS game, with Co-CEO Sanjay Jha hinting at the importance of having their own OS.

Android And Me are running a story that links the Co-CEO’s comments with a recent acquisition by the company.

It appears that Motorola recently acquired Azingo, a mobile platform company that already has their own linux-based OS, Azingo Mobile 2.0. The OS already includes a Webkit-based browser, a web runtime, Flash runtime, and full developer tools.

Whether this points to Motorola’s desire to develop an entirely new OS, or just them merging Azingo’s technologies/engineers into Moto’s own Android skin, Motoblur, remains to be seen, but it’s fun to dream, isn’t it?
