#Ubuntu for phones – backed by #Canonical
I must say that this is really cool and looks great!!
iOS is there as a stable platform that companies can rely on in terms of that SW development on this platform for native apps are great due to that Apple provides both the HW and the SW and therefore simplifies build of apps, you don’t have to make like 150 versions for all the device types out there that you need if you’re developing native apps for Android that uses complex features of the device. I guess the same scenario will come true for Ubuntu unless they only ship it with a small range of devices and keep the focus on true HTML5 apps as long as it fulfills the need…
I wonder how and when Canonical or others will take this Ubuntu platform on and bring it to market on a broad scale…. Anyway it looks very promising!
Read more here and go through the great feature set and design!
