Samsung tried their hand at an OS, back in the day, when Android was still struggling to manage a foot hold in the OS realm and iOS was king. Sadly, Samsung’s pet project didn’t really take off, despite it being a very solid OS. Blame in on the lack of apps or good third party support, we only saw Bada in a few of Samsung’s Wave series handsets, which sold well, but not as well compared to Android offerings. In an interview at CES with Samsung’s Tae-Jin Kang, he revealed that the company has decided to scrap the project and instead concentrate on ‘Tizen’ open-source project, which is backed by Intel.
