Ubuntu on Android

Wow... I really hope we can do this with the Bionic!

2 Gigs is quite a bit of space but... I use Ubuntu as my OS, so this would be awesome.

This could have some real possibilities. I'm keeping an eye on this.

Yeah... This actually seems like a Game Changer.

It will be interesting when phones get powerfull enough to handle writing/testing/building apps directly on themselves.

What exactly is good about this? Its basically like the web dock for Motorola phones isn't it

Ubuntu is a full fledged Linux OS.

Not only that, but Ubuntu has one of a dedicated following and support. AND it's FREE.

I know what Ubuntu is but this basically just transfers files from your phone to your laptop in an easier way?

No, it's basically having a full desktop OS in your pocket. check this out:

So, sorry to ask. All of this sounds fun and all but, is it compatible with the Bionic? Do i need to buy the dock as well?

Have the same question.. does anyone have any information on someone who is actually using Ubuntu on a Bionic? Would be great to understand how well it performs etc. Definitely has huge potential with some of the monster quad-core smartphones rumored to be on the horizon! Will definitely keep an ear to the ground here. I looked at the Ubuntu for Android site, they do a marginal job or articulating the real value, will be nice to see more. Can see how corporations could find it attractive, we'll see!

It looks like it's probably not going to be soemthing you can directly download and instal on your phone (but I'm not positive) and might need some customization going on, so Bionic might not be there yet?

Jerry Hildenbrand does a nice job explaining why this is exciting though:
