Ubuntu for your Mobile!

Ubuntu eyes mobile linux devices!

This report in the linuxdevices.com states that Canonical is readying a version of its popular Ubuntu desktop Linux distribution specifically for mobile Internet devices (MIDs). "Ubuntu Mobile and Embedded" will ship in October, concurrent with Ubuntu 7.10. According to the Ubuntu CTO Matt Zimmerman:

"It is clear that new types of device -- small, handheld, graphical tablets which are Internet-enabled are going to change the way we communicate and collaborate. These devices place new demands on open source software and require innovative graphical interfaces, improved power management and better responsiveness."

Looks like mobile applications are going open source too.
