Hi, I'm nearly ready to donate, but I have a question. Will this device be powerful enough to allow Ubuntu mobile to be ported? Is this a possibility (even though I realize that it's not an initial priority)?

Well, I don't know Ubuntu mobile and I suppose Nikolaus and Joerg don't know anything more about it too. I think you should ask on some Ubuntu related site, they should know what are the requirements of their software.

On Neo900 side there will be nothing that'll stop you from porting it. However, if it turns out it needs 4 GB RAM just to boot (I made it up of course), then obviously it won't work.

Then I received the confirmation email..so I knew it went through.

I wondered whether there may be a false positive.

Hopefully not too many go through that...and hopefully it doesn't create extra work for you guys...

Apparently, dual core is a minimum. Everything else seems fine though (I suppose it's a bit too much to ask for you to add an extra core? :P )

As long as Fremantle is supported I guess, but it has made me consider a bit longer before I donate (but not more than a month as I will then lose 2% of my refund)

I've heard of "NGO" (non-governmental organisation), but never heard that term before either.

I guess single core won't be as problematic as lack of multi touch.
