Thanks. Although this sounds like a neat idea in theory, in practice I think its not that good (from what I know so far). The reason being is that the software isn't completed yet, and there's bound to be annoying bugs... this takes dedicated developers working fulltime like in larger firms. The next thing, is that this board is pretty big. For a device like N900 its suitable, but it doesn't offer us a physical form factor like those slim Motorola Droid's. And lastly, its very expensive. While a short-production run is excusable... having a look at the prices listed for batches of 10k and 100k its still very expensive. It will drive the cost of the device easily into a thousand. To illustrate my point, an order of ~40,000 units would bring the cost down of each unit to roughly ~$470 each. Canonical wanted an order of ~40,000 pre-orders for the Edge phone. That device was not only offering the software to be done, within its total price of $700 it wasn't just giving the board but the body, screen and gismos (and some of the highest quality). I mean if that project failed, only making $12 - $13M... I doubt this one would take off. No offence, its just the reality of the situation. Linux on mobile is pretty much dead. The only glimmers of hope I can see rests on: - Vivaldi Tablet (Plasma Active on Craplet) - Jolla phone - GNexus/Nexus 4/Nexus 7/New Nexus 7/Nexus 10/Chromebook etc etc with a port of Ubuntu, Mer, PlasmActive, openSUSE ARM
