Android??? Shit, never in a million years. Reminds me of Windows Vista. Shitty UI, malware and eternal app updates and bad programming.

And no, there's no mobile specific version of Ubuntu.
There's been rumours a few week backs, but apparently it wasn't true.
So the one running on the Nexus One here, is the same desktop version than you can download yourself (I think).]]>Jul 8th 2010 6:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/
My mistake... Sorry.. I forgot. Only negative Iphone comments are tolerated in this crowd.

Maybe I should forget all about taste and get myself a job administrating some Linux based system and hide away in a cellar with my new EVO. Download some warez and watch some porn.

This post could have been about Ubuntu on mobile phones, if it runs smoothly or not,
Then we could have talked about a possible Ubuntu Mobile version,
Then we could have talked about what kind of stuff does/doesn't work with Ubuntu on the Nexus One.

But no, somebody has to say "Iphone sucks", "Android sucks"..

@misjah
If you just don't like it, then what about just saying "I don't like it".
And talking about the antenna, then asking not to troll about it is a troll..


meh..]]>Jul 8th 2010 6:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/
Fair enough... But I think you may well be the only one doing that. I'm getting tired of people dissing the iPhone on this forum. But that seems to be ok by everyone. Anything negative about androind and you are a troll and get immediately downgraded to oblivion. ]]>Jul 8th 2010 6:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/I have an iPod Touch.

Of course it's a mobile OS. Just like Windows 7.]]>Jul 8th 2010 8:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/The reason is usually because for some reason, iPhone fanboys are usually more agressive in their comments thus prone to be banned. Just read your own comment above:
---------------------------------------------
Android??? Shit, never in a million years. Reminds me of Windows Vista. Shitty UI, malware and eternal app updates and bad programming.

iPhone, now THATs an esthetic peace of equip, through and through.

And please spare me the antenna shit... It's getting old fast
------------------------------------

Or this one:
------------------------------------
Maybe I should forget all about taste and get myself a job administrating some Linux based system and hide away in a cellar with my new EVO. Download some warez and watch some porn.
------------------------------------

On the first one you just came in shouting and insulting a platform. If you don't like it that's ok. I don't like the iPhone (antennae being a large reason) but I still respect the work on many developers which worked hard to bring a nice equipment and dont go insulting their work.

In the second post you just insult a large portion of the readers on this site. Any post on this level will be downraked and I will do that no matter the user preferences. Insulting = bad.

On the other hand look this post where you kept think on a better level:

------------------------------------
Fair enough... But I think you may well be the only one doing that. I'm getting tired of people dissing the iPhone on this forum. But that seems to be ok by everyone. Anything negative about androind and you are a troll and get immediately downgraded to oblivion.
-----------------------------------

You were not downraked now. Just because you were being polite. In fact you can say negative many things being polite and you wont be downranked.

I hope you get the idea.

Luck!

Let me try again.... I fully understand WHY was sent into oblivion (I was rude and maybe deserved it)... how ever this is NOT my point. My point is: WHY does it seem to be OK (on this forum) to bash the Iphone (and often in a RUDE fashion) and not Android ?

Android is full of things not to like, but still it seems to be "illegal" to bash THAT? How come? ]]>Jul 9th 2010 2:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/Maybe my english sucks... but remember that quite a few people on this forum does not have English as their native tongue. Me included.

@Guimo
I took the time to do some research on different posts on several articles in here (I'm relatively new here) and you guys are actually quite cool and seem to have a very good self-justice when it comes to bashing (no matter which device).

I read quite a few posts on several forums, and it seems I have gotten things mixed up.

I apologize for my posts, they were rude and out of line. ]]>Jul 9th 2010 2:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/Jul 9th 2010 10:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/Even though I thought of batman too before I thought about english :D]]>Jul 9th 2010 11:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/Jul 10th 2010 11:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/Jul 8th 2010 6:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/08/ubuntu-joins-android-on-nexus-one-apocalyptic-repercussions-now/
This is pretty cool indeed! It would be neat to run some command line apps or even a server on the phone! While the GUI would likely be painfully slow, the command line would certainly be fast enough for most CLI tasks. With an external keyboard (android BT support?), this would make one helluva portable netbook for CLI geeks, with great battery life (red mode) and a tiny footprint.
