"...there are no immediate plans for actual Ubuntu phones, and no carriers have been signed up yet -- although we're told that the OS will run on any new phone built for Android, should the manufacturer see merit in installing Ubuntu instead."
It will be interesting to see if/when a manufacturer picks this up, to hit the mainstream market.

- mtgx 14y agoIt would be an impossible task to do that for all phones. But the community can make ROM's for different phones like they do it for Android.
- marshray 14y agoNo serious company wants the responsibility of bricking someone's smartphone. Where it would get interesting is if they introduced this as a UML guest Android app.
