#4Interesting, Meizu makes some pretty beautiful hardware. I got one of the MX3 on the cheap to play around with. I only wish they would stop using Samsung crappy Exynos SoC

I have known for a long time that they were in Canonical's Carrier Advisory Group, and I can only wonder what use they have for Ubuntu phones. I think they didn't have much success in selling Windows Phone handsets on-contract, so maybe they are planning on offering Ubuntu as the third OS choice in place of Windows Phone (as in, Android/iOS/Ubuntu instead of Android/iOS/WP).

#7Makes me wonder if Canonical has the manpower to focus on 3 devices (desktop, tablet and phone).

Maybe not, but I imagine mobile and table would be so profitable if it took off that expanding would be easy.

#10is that going to be your an arm processor with baseband integrated?
the cool thing, you now have your laptop with you on your phone, and it's not just an android, but something with a real package management system. see windows 8 convertibles...
the not so cool thing, your laptop is now a nice backdoor where you have no idea whatever the hell it's doing.
