Still waiting on a device that multiboots android, firefox os, tizen, sailfish, and Ubuntu Touch.
edit: add Webos to that too

Now they hit more than 500,000 dollars I wonder if Shuttleworth is secretly putting money in there.

"you will be able to boot android, so you can keep your existing app collection" yes, so each time you want to launch an app you need to reboot?!

...I'm still for jolla :D

If that is the edge you are looking for I say, you should go for android.

I don't think neither jolla or Ubuntu will be as great as they say.

Love sailfish, but Ubuntu device Looks cooler and is more exclusive(if it is ever built).

The only thing that makes me pissed is that they don't announce the battery size!! that is the same lame mistake as Jolla.

Who has supported Ubuntu edge?
 
I put in an order for this exclusive futuristic spaceship and hope to see it in may. Anyone else supported ubuntu or I'm the only one here at TMO?

Love to run my own shipping thread all by myself.

In fact, I don't use android so I don't care about the apps :D

But i'm dubtful: when you launch your desktop operating system, will you still be able to use your smartphone (I mean, will I get my phone calls at least?!)
