Google’s success on the mobile phone market is, by now, a well known fact. Two of the determining factors of this progress are the Google Nexus One and the Android OS, both finally to be released in Australia, through Vodafone, as well.
Why would anyone bother running a desktop OS on their smartphone? Max lists a couple of scenarios:
"I... see many... engineering [students] when they are studying Ubuntu/linux. Instead of heading to the lab or having dual-boot on their computer, students will be able to use their Nexus One/Android phone as a test device."
"[F]or web designers, their Android phone can become a portable test web server to test out their new designs."
By the way, it hasn t been very long since the HD2 also got the Ubuntu treatment. What s with phones being ported to desktop OSes these days?
