that is what would be released for app development and testing for interested developers.
 
Read somewhere that a version for Galaxy Nexus would be out very soon.

A ROM compatible with SGN would be released. Hardware to be procured by the developer/tester.
 
will it be similiar to tizen by any chance?i wont be so worried about apps with ubuntu,they will flood once the os gets debugged and finalised.
 
nope. it is a totally different mobile platform developed by canonical. check the videos on youtube. they showcased it a while ago.
 
Yes, and the best part will be that Ubuntu for Phones would support HTML5 Web apps. So, anyone can build apps in a jiffy. Currently, apps like Cleartrip, Flipkart, etc use HTML5 for Android. Of course, native apps will be faster and better.
 

bootloader main issue. i been breaking my head past 3-4 weeks wrt to bootloader. else its easy. get a dumb phone, then jtag the device. i guess i can port linux, but it will be debian. :-D not ubuntu.
