Can we install regular Ubuntu packages on this phone? If we can then I guess you could install terminator, gnome-terminal or something.
I saw a video in Spanish of Obijuan installing stuff with apt-get after some configuration, so you can install Ubuntu packages. He showed python.

Any recommendations on where to buy the Note 4G? I got mine at pandawill, but I'm curious about other places. It was my first time buying from a Chinese e-retailer.
I bought mine on amazon in France (sold by some other company but shipped by amazon).
Are you happy with it ?

I think the reason is that they want separate pages by countries, not by languages. For instance, they have three different pages in Spanish (Spain, Mexico, Uruguay).
http://www.bq.com/uy/game-ubuntu and http://www.bq.com/mx/game-ubuntu 404'd for me, so no you can't buy them in Mexico nor Uruguay.

#146I got burned once with a windows phone Omnia 7 as an early adopter and it was beyond useless (lack of apps/configurability) so I will definitely not rush again on unproven phones despite my interest in Ubuntu. Also the price/specs on this phone is horrible compared to Xiaomi Note 4G (190euro) which I own and can recommend to anyone. I hope Ubuntu phone catches on though. Competition is good.
The specs on that Xiaomi are really nice value. I'd been looking at the 2nd gen Moto E or G for my parents, but the Xiaomi beats it, although at a higher cost. It just amazes me how cheap tech has become. The other day I was looking through the Microsoft Store, saw a $90 ish tablet that had various discounts at times bringing it down to an absolutely ridiculous $60-70 range. I checked out some reviews and they were g…

#149I have this phone since around 20th of March and like it really very much. The Terminal app is hilarious. I was pleased to find much more stuff in the Ubuntu store than expected. Telephony is perfect. The one thing I do not like is the runtime of the battery. 44 hours was the absolute maximum I had this phone running before it went black (just turning it on, entering the SIM-PIN, having Bluetooth, GPS and WiFi turned…
I literally don't know anyone who doesn't charge daily (wake up, take it off charger, put it on the charger around 11:30 PM same day), except my dad and me as we use our phones on stand-by and just for calls, and a little bit of messaging. I work from home so I do all my smartphone stuff on my computer, and when I go out I'm with friends, not on my phone. And even then, we tend to charge every 2-3 days.

Honestly I'd just prefer the HTTP endpoint not even exist.
The only reason why some sites still use http is because of the need to purchase an ssl certificate from one of the cartelized CA providers.
