Canonical to demonstrate Ubuntu on phones

Actually, I'm still waiting for Ubuntu for TV and Ubuntu for Android, which were both announced to be released and shipping on actual devices in 2012.

I really do like Ubuntu and use it as my main/only desktop OS since several years. But it appears that Canonical loves to announce vapourware products every now and then.

I'd expect Jolla to ship a Sailfish device before Canonical would ship theirs.

I don't know, but I think FirefoxOS will be first to market (in their case Brazil) of the 4 new Linux-based phones. Because it is planned for Q1. My guess is, Tizen will be second and Jolla 3rd. Ubuntu phones is planned for 2014. It will be the last to enter the market.
