Your questions are not really for the development mailing lists. The wiki has this information, the promotional videos too.
And by the way, the development curve has not advanced to the stage where desktop convergence is front burner. For example MIR is the base for convergence and its not even at alpha or beta release yet. The roadmap says convergence is scheduled for 2014!! As for your devices, like I said, the wiki has the requirements for devices, kindly read it. If your device meets up with the minimum requirements, the next hurdle is having someone port the OS to that device. There is a list of devices that currently have functional ports, or are WIP also on the Ubuntu website.

I searched about it on the Wiki and could not find any technical documents. The thing that I am most curious now is how it is supposed to work when 'docked', and what 'docked' would mean in this case. Plugging in an USB keyboard? An HDMI monitor/TV? Will it work with hardware such as the Atrix Lapdock (which I happen to own to use with my Ubuntu ARM devices), the padfone tablet dock, or the kickstarter project casetop<http://liliputing.com/2013/05/casetop-project-aims-to-turn-your-phone-into-a-laptop-for-250-kickstarter.html> ? How is it supposed to work with devices that do not have an HDMI-out plug like the officially-supported Nexus devices? Will it implement something like a virtual device on wifi via DLNA? What are the use cases for which this functionality is being planned? Best regards, -- Cláudio "Patola" Sampaio IRC: ptl - Yahoo: patolaaa Campinas, SP - Brazil.
