UMTSmon for Ubuntu - control and monitor mobile cards  
Written by osiixy the 17 Oct 10 at 18:30. Global category: Usability. Already implemented
I tried to find a great, advanced mobile network card manager to Ubuntu with GUI.

And I have found UMTSmon (only).

But, as they say in the download section:
"Debian, Ubuntu: For Debian, some .deb files are available, but these are not maintained in a coordinated fashion yet."

http://umtsmon.sourceforge.net/
"UMTSmon is a tool to control and monitor a wireless mobile network card (GPRS, EDGE, WCDMA, UMTS, HSDPA) in a laptop running the Linux operating system. It handles PIN codes, operator choice (roaming), signal strength and network statistics, sending/receiving SMS."

So it would be great if it could be made for Ubuntu.

iPad like device to compliment Ubuntu  
Written by timnwells the 2 Jun 10 at 23:05. Global category: Hardware support. Already implemented
The move to less dedicated "computers" and more mobile devices and computing built into standard devices puts demand on software vendors to have or support hardware.

Ubuntu needs to partner with a manufacturer of "tablet" (iPad) and promote that people can purchase this tablet device which will run the Ubuntu netbook edition.

I can find tablets running Android and Windows Crap Edition (CE) but there is a distinct lack of tablet hardware I can purchase and install Ubuntu on.

I think there should be.

Solution #1: Promote tablet hardware that can be purchased and have Ubuntu installed
Written by timnwells the 2 Jun 10 at 23:05.
Find a manufacturer of "tablet" hardware that I can purchase the hardware from and install Ubuntu on. There is a lack of affordable "tablet" devices that can run Ubuntu and users are purchasing other options, when we should be getting Ubuntu on these mobile tablet devices and out in front of consumers.
