For those interested in the Linux Platform for mobile devices, Access has released a website with tons of screenshots for its forthcoming Access Linux Platform. Click on User Experience to see how the different screens such as Contacts, Dialer, Incoming Call screens, and Launcher would look like on a device.

If the menu and icons look somewhat similar to those used in the Treo, that’s because Access is the same company behind the Garnet OS, the backbone of the Palm OS 5. Through the built-in Access Garnet VM layer found in the Linux Platform, current applications running on the Garnet OS can likewise operate on the Linux version. Rumor has it that it can very well be the next OS for the Treo Smartphone in 2008.

Hardware requirements include at least 200 MHz ARM 9, but for better performance 400 MHz is recommended. A minimum of 64 MB memory capacity is also required. The platform supports a variety of input methods ranging from the full QWERTY keypad to touch screen entry.
