How is Maemo unreliable in that respect? I was disappointed to find Touch doesn't work like it does.

I thought the whole point was that you can switch. That's what Canonical says, and what's demonstrated in some videos floating around.
- rlpb 11y agoCan you be more specific? We may be talking about two different things. The Ubuntu phone requires apps specifically written for the UI (though I think things written against Qt's mobile APIs can be made fairly easily). The Ubuntu phone will not run your average X app. I'm not aware of the Ubuntu tablet proposed to be any different. My understanding is that apps will indeed seamlessly switch between the two modes - but only where they have specifically been adapted to do so. Apps not adapted will not run. Or am I mistaken?
