They have them on train station platforms now, providing a link to timetables for trains :) Was the first major use I saw for them. Also noticed them on a few bus stop type advertising bill boards for games (again giving a link for more information, though one was a link to phone backgrounds and stuff) -Matt Daubney
Right. So you're walking past something and don't have a pen or paper to hand it makes sense to snap a picture of a QR Code to note it for future perusal. The product in question (timetables, pictures, sounds etc) is not tangible it's electronically delivered and the QR code is just a shortcut to get it.
Its very different for tangible products like DVDs where you have the thing in your hand. I am unconvinced that someone would even notice the QR code on each and every product. Maybe if there was a banner up people could take a picture of the QR code, but it seems overkill on the product itself.
Anyway, that's all an aside. I think it's great that someone is taking Ubuntu and packaging it up for people using his own resources. More people should do this :)
