Hi All, I sent an email to the Gemini guys, asking them about a possibile Ubuntu version. This is their answer. Maybe if more Ubuntu phone / touch / personal users show their support, planetcom may accept the idea.
Best regards, Giovano Robin Parker <ro...@planetcom.co.uk> 18:34 (4 minuti fa) Rispondi a Giovano Giovano, Thanks for your email. At present we aim for Gemini to have a dual boot option of Android and Linux. In terms of the Linux distro, we are yet to make a final decision but wish for the Linux environment to be as open as possible. We hare having discussions with Ubuntu as well as Sailfish amongst others.
