Ubuntu Edge: founder says failure isn't the end of the dream (Guardian)

Looking at most of the communication around the Ubuntu Phone, it's all unspecific. A lot of "somebody has shown interest", "we feel it is the right solution" and so on. To me, this really feels like (ha!) being presented a smoke screen without no dependable information in it. But what you're gonna do with those ambitions, and none of these world-changing ideas actually being there in reality, i.e. in working code. Same story goes for Mir, Ubuntu TV, Ubuntu on Android, and all the other failed projects you hear nothing about anymore. They're really doing a disservice to their (fainting) credibility with that.

I've unconsciously prefixed most of the communication coming out of Canonical with "In our wildest dreams ...".
