Samsung to Open Bada to External Developers
Seoul-Samsung Electronics Co. plans to open up its homegrown mobile software platform to outside developers and device makers next year in a bid to kick-start growth in the operating system and reduce its reliance on Google Inc.'s Android in the increasingly litigious smartphone and tablet computer business.
The company is planning to make its Bada software an open-source platform next year, a person familiar with the situation said, adding the company has no plans to buy a software company.
The move comes after Google announced in August it plans to purchase competitor Motorola Mobility Holdings Inc. for $12.5 billion.
