http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/05/phoenix.jpg (http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/31/phoenix-project-webos/)It looks like webOS isn't going quietly into the mobile OS retirement home. While its journey to open-source continues (http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/14/hp-rolls-out-more-open-webos-components-new-isis-browser-and-so/), an eager cabal of developers, fans and designers have decided to reignite the ill-fated operating system under the banner of Phoenix International Communications. Focusing its efforts on transporting open webOS (http://www.engadget.com/tag/webOS/) to existing devices, both HP-made and otherwise, Phoenix also wants throw in some new features and fixes -- presumably throwing in some extra software gems and UI tweaks. If it all goes to plan, the organization even wants to bring new webOS devices to market -- a heady dream, but you've got to admire their pluck. Any webOS devotees out there can pledge their allegiance (and assistance) to the cause at the source below.
