funambol: Open Source Mobile Server

While perusing the latest Red Herring I came across an article on Open Source in Paris, and how the French government is really going after this in a big way. Liberte, fraternite et equalite and all that. One of the companies that caught my eye was Funambol, who seem to be making giant strides with a mobile delivery server that is both open source and deployed by large telcos. Sounds like an interesting concept and one I'm going to delve into more, especially since Fabrizio Capobianco, their CEO, seems to be getting rave reviews about his blog on the mobile/open source cross over.
