Red Hat scored a win for eCos on Monday by announcing a partnership with Delphi to provide the OS for Delphi's Mobile Productivity Centers. The MPC provides hands-free use of PDA's and an interface to cell phones in automobiles.

Description
|
eCos (embedded Configurable operating system) is an open-source, royalty-free, highly configurable and application-specific operating
system ideal for embedded systems development. eCos is targeted at high-volume applications in consumer electronics, telecommunications, automotive, and other deeply embedded applications. eCos ensures
embedded developers have a common software infrastructure for delivering a diverse range of embedded products and enables embedded
software developers to focus on delivering better products, instead of developing or maintaining a real-time operating system in addition to
the products themselves.
