Probably prudent to use Android drivers etc. to get up and running on as many devices as possible and wedge a place in the minds of OEMs within handheld market. Just have to hope, for Ubuntu's own sake, it can return itself to its desktop standards, by the time the full release comes out (in April year.).

I guess a real target for Ubuntu (touch and desktop,) has to be to get mass adoption when support ends for WinXP in July 2014. A three month window is pretty slim but possible. And, no doubt, something handheld is the way to do that?

I wonder if it would be possible to make GTK run on display flinger or possibly GTK apps could have their user interfaces re-written in QT. I know transmission has a qt version and the user interface would work well on a mobile device.
