Ok, you've all been thinking it...

Ubuntu should run on the Apple iPad.

to make the touchpad and Ubuntu could make the os, due to the software being free the item should be cheaper.

In house devices are created to service car auto-trans, scientific applications, the cable guy and other such industry.

If conical can jump into the market now they could be a front-runner.

Granted some one has to workout the nuts and bolts, but thats why Mark Shuttleworth earns the big bucks.

Meego is going to be in the In-vehicle Infortainment System, according to http://www.electronista.com/articles/10/07/23/meego.to.reach.in.car.entertainme nt.systems/
We should follow this, and help Linux community to bring Meego to everyone.
Start integrating Meego to Ubuntu, as soon as possible, not forgetting to contribute back to the project.

So that many people can get a choice

How about some competition to this Google Android?
I think Ubuntu should have it's own unique OS for smartphones, with lots of features, applications and support for lots of codec for video and audio.
Ubuntu have it's own OS specifically for notebooks or smaller, like Moblin wich is based on Debian and its own interface.

After all, it should be possible, that is, if developers are daring enough to challenge Google

That's my suggestion, but wether you gonna support it, or not is not for me to decide, but i still like the idea.

I don't really know if this is still in progress or not, but ACCESS Linux Platform 3.0 is really promising...

Ubuntu already has a version for Mobile Internet Devices but it is not very widely known yet. Ubuntu should improve Ubuntu MID edition so it works on smart phones along with Mobile Internet devices.

Distribution light enough for most sub Netbook Mobile Devices. Its apt Repository should only be for main system functions and not most normal applications. This is to keep it small and light. Mostly a browser and desktop.

Every OS Application and or System UI should have minimal chrome and be optimized for mobile devices. This is to ensure usability for touchscreens.

Homescreen/Desktop should have no menus with all functions reached through desktop icons, widgets and docks. This is for usability for touchscreens and small devices where menus become cramped and unusable.

WebOS style 'apps' that are light single feature applications downloaded from a Web based app repository. I think this type of ecosystem is vital for mobile devices.

Make better touch screen and "cellphone keyboard" support for UNR and others.

The technology is moving so fast, making the entire repo as it is in UNR is much wiser. The cellphones have 564 + ram and 400 mhz ++. processors. Soon it will be more. Adams tablet is fully capable of running heavy kubuntu when it comes out, whilst a lighter desktop environment is advised.

I suggest to make the main panel a little bit larger to make Ubuntu easy to use with people who are using devices with touchscreen feature , I think size 30 pixel Is good . Thank you all

Create a similar project as NBR but optimised for Touch screens. Flipping pages functions, click and drag functions.
Perfect for Adams notion ink. Android has no repository yet, and if Ubuntu makes a move it will own the market, with its giant repository.

This not to get rid of NRB for touchscreens idea but to complement it. See the screen magnifier does not always work for me so I have to lower the resolution for my Grandma witch blurs the panels. Making the panels and every thing else easily scale able it would make it more useful on a touch screen but also more customizable for special needs. Plus some may prefer the default interface and in linux we are all about choice!

Why reinvent the wheel? MeeGo is Linux's best shot at being truly open. Android is also Linux based, but Google has it on a leash called Android Market.

The market is over-saturated with tablet OS's. Another tablet OS will confuse consumers even more. Manufacturers will be unlikely to adopt it.


Blackbery+ Windows Mobile 7 + Android + IPHONE+ symbian+palmos+meego = too much competition and confusion
