Just curious if any of you have gotten 12 running on a tablet yet? Saw a couple of Youtube videos...

Thinking about trying it with a Galaxy tab but will probably wait for official tab release.

A full-fledged desktop OS on a tablet. An office suite. Gimp. Inkscape. Audacity. All on a tablet, all of them free. I think, many people would want that.

Not Ubuntu, but the Vivaldi tablet with KDE is worth having a second look at:
http://makeplaylive.com/

It runs on Mer Core (a continuation of the MeeGo project), and uses KDE's Plasma Active interface.

If you want to check out what the Plasma Active interface is like, then I suggest that you download the "Kubuntu Active Technology Preview [..] a preview of Kubuntu using the Plasma Active tablet experience". Then install it in Virtualbox...
