The issue I see here is that Ubuntu doesn't have a coherent development platform like Android or iOS. That said it would allow even more flexibility than Android, but would that mean it would fail for having too much choice? Ubuntu phone anyone?
- jiggy2011 15y agoI'm not sure how this would work.. They would really need full compatibility with android for this to make any sense or they will be fighting an uphill battle for adoption. Most of the desktop apps shipped with current ubuntu would work very badly on a tablet. I really can't imagine Unity working on a smartphone at all without some major changes. Do canonical really have the rescources to work on this many fronts?
- tankenmate 15y agoThere are android emulators for Ubuntu, or you could run the entire android stack along side all the usual Ubuntu software. How the average punter would respond to this is less clear.
