Re: Ubuntu Phone
 
I'm sold to Sailfish, especially when it comes to UI, but hardware wise Ubuntu Phone is much more like it.
I would be happy to pay +1000 euros just to get GS4 like base hardware on a Ubuntu Mobile or Jolla. Just make the hardware your own and don't care about the expense. Would there be market for it outside of me and couple of other weirdos? Probably not.

2 has order the $10000 deal. WTF :D

I have now joined Ubuntnu's scam campaign too. The dual boot made me do it. And you can't have enough phones.

Ubuntu Phone hardware + Jolla OS = <3

Would that be possible from a technical aspect?

Re: Ubuntu Edge
 
I really like the concept of running full desktop on mobile, by just docking the thing using standard wiring. The N9 has Easy Debian, but is too slow to be practical, and lacks HDMI (and I never succeeded in pairing and using a BT mouse to it) I was kinda hoping Jolla would be the first to make this practical, but now I can only hope they will at least provide the necessary hardware to make it possible.

I'm not really keen on Ubuntu lately, they are losing touch with their community.

Actually yes it would.

Damn. 2013 seems to have been the year of mobile Linux announcements. 2014 seems to be the year of mobile Linux deliveries.

This is one impressive looking and thought out piece of kit.
