They've now posted a picture of it running Ubuntu and outputing over HDMI on it, I presume it means it can use the built in screen too..

It would good to know about details, challenges, limitations, and a what's working/what's not working. Do you know any wiki/blog or whatever related to it? The Twitter account remarks that "sounds work but no graphics yet", and now it has HDMI externally.. could mean, the driver for the internal display isn't working yet. I wonder what's needed, from the user's view, to have Ubuntu usable on a tablet. There is a soft keyboard, Xorg supports touch screens in general (does it understand and report as aXEvent frequently used gestures, or does this need to be captured "further up"?).. Does Ubuntu and apps provide everything needed for a touchscreen GUI? I wait for it to arrive. I would like to set it up as a multiboot so I can use the supplied Android system as long as I am fiddling with the Ubuntu system. I am not familiar with ARM devices so I don't know how to achieve it yet. Regards Peter
