LONDON & SUNNYVALE, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- Reinforcing its leadership position in the Real-Time Virtualization(TM) market for mobile devices, VirtualLogix(TM), Inc. today announced that its virtualization software product, VirtualLogix VLX, is the first to support Symbian OS(TM), the market leading open operating system for advanced data-enabled mobile phones. VirtualLogix will demonstrate a prototype configuration of the Symbian OS running simultaneously with Linux on several mobile platforms at the Symbian Smartphone Show in London, on 21-22 October 2008.

VirtualLogix VLX for mobile handsets separates hardware management and application management on mobile platforms, allowing an application running on the Symbian OS to access a peripheral device managed by another operating system kernel, such as Linux. With additional security for financial and other high-risk transactions, VirtualLogix VLX for Symbian permits handset manufacturers and wireless operators to deliver more reliable mobile phones with advanced features to the mass market.
