Thanks for compiling the list. There's a lot of interesting software I hadn't heard of.

A cross referenced database of open source software used in commercial products would be interesting too.

why does a consumer electronics piece have `strace` included? they must have forgotten it in there, or whoever compiled this was looking a debug piece.

Also I am guessing it's the Apache license, not Apache httpd.

It's license, which covers packages on Pre: Apache Harmony, joda-time, google-rfc-2445, Fast MD5 implementation in Java, gdata-java-client , Apache Velocity project. PDF file says "device may contain" so I am not sure if everything listed is on device :)

There's a similarly long screen of copyright and license declarations in the iPhone. Go to:

Settings -> General -> About -> Legal
