POPPYCOCK!!! Linux has been around a LONG time to not find an MLO version for it, which has also been around for enough years.
What the heck do you think Android is! Points are well taken that a web interface at least bridges in the mean time. Even better, java (yes, ick, but better than nothing), and be done with it all. It is chicken and egg to say Linux is a 'lesser' market when there is no version to even find out if a market exists. +1 for linux, already, for Pete's sake. (Whomever Pete is.)
