When I think of how many hours I've wasted to root my phone, installing custom kernels (so that I have full control over the cpu), and cyanogenmod (for gui customization and advanced power management) I don't wanna go through that again. Then I think about my wife's iphone. I take cool photos of our 2 year old. And it goes like this: me "honey turn on Bluetooth. I have pics for you". Wife "my phone can't receive files over bluetooth" me "ok I'll send them to your email". Wife "ios doesn't let me save email attachments". lol Wut? I'm hoping Ubuntu can free me from this madness. Though I'm probably just getting my hopes up.

Does anyone know what will be supported java-wise? will I be able to run open/sun java 7 and run my desktop apps? would this be available in desktop "mode" or both "phone" and "desktop" but with a squished screen? Can anyone with a tablet answer this?

You are certainly welcome to try… But… Be aware that there is no guarantee that it will work, or even that it will not damage your phone. You install it at your own risk. This has been tested only on the supported devices. It is still in Beta phase, so do expect problems.
