Mobile user interface specialist UIQ declared bankruptcy, according to wire service report this week.

The company was funded by Symbian, which then sold it to Sony Ericsson, which then sold a 50% stake to Motorola.

However, “There are no opportunities to create a new line of business in the current financial climate,” CEO Johan Sandberg told Reuters.

Now the software is being merged back into the Nokia-owned Symbian platform.
