This is so cool.
I have already tried mojo, but... ..This is going to be offical port.
New releases for ARM will be available at the same time they will be for x85!
I believe there is gonna be a lot more stuff, and architecture will be called "armel" instead of Mojos stupid arm choise.
Here is arcticle about it on ubuntu wiki:

...it will bring the full Ubuntu Desktop operating system to the ARMv7 processor architecture... This version of the Ubuntu Desktop operating system will target the ARMv7 architecture including ARM Cortex-A8 and Cortex-A9 processor-based systems...
EDIT: The wiki seems to agree with me about the Nokia-sponsored mojo port:
Could perhaps be a candidate chroot base to start bootstrapping Ubuntu armel, but the Debian armel port looks like a better candidate

Promote what about the tablets? We're not even sure this will run on the current tablets.
EDIT: Unfortunately, this is much more of a promotion opportunity for Pandora, as they have the required processor.

Sorry, what?
Do you guys know something I don't?
Can software compiled for ARMv7 be run on an ARMv6? Have they announced an ARMv6 port?

So it looks like there will be an officially supported ARM version of Ubuntu as soon the next release (April 2009). Big news for the next IT as well as Maemo. Interesting times!
