Rumors are swirling that Microsoft may buy or invest significantly in mobile-development tool vendor Xamarin.



From All About Microsoft:
Many .Net developers are abuzz about a rumored acquisition or major investment by Microsoft in Xamarin.

CRN reported on March 17 that Microsoft was "in the final stages of negotiations" that may lead to either an outright acquisition or investment in the mobile tool vendor that has been a major backer of Microsoft's C#.

Neither Microsoft nor Miguel de Icaza, Xamarin's cofounder, are commenting on the rumors.
