Mobile phone maker Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB isn't talking to PalmSource Inc. about using its operating system for Sony Ericsson's smart phones, spokesman Peter Bodor said.

Mr. Bodor was reacting to comments made by David Nagel, chief executive of PalmSource. In an interview with Dow Jones Newswires, Mr. Nagel said the company plans to extend its cooperation with mobile phone makers and has had ongoing talks with Sony Ericsson.

Mr. Nagel said his goal is to get PalmSource - which is on the verge of being spun off from parent company Palm Inc. - into the number two position in Europe, where Symbian is the leader. (Reuters)
