Ubuntu Touch goes native

Posted on 10:40 by Unknown
"Pre-release test images of Ubuntu Touch now launch an Ubuntu system directly, with the Android userland environment, used to run Android applications under Ubuntu Touch, running in an LXC Linux container within Ubuntu.

This is good news for us tablet users who have been foaming at the mouth for a true Linux and/or Ubuntu experience.

Especially for us hackers/tweakers, as intomobile stated.

I personally am looking forward to some of this touch technology Canonical is working on funneling back into the desktop/laptop pc version.

Especially if they could release a much lighter option for unity.
