It can only possibly do well if it can run Android (or iOS) apps - the big problem predicted with Surface is the lack of apps, and that's got the whole of MS to bribe developers for it. Perhaps I'm simply not in the right sort of target market (I don't own a tablet...) but I can't think what I'd expect to get out of a Ubuntu tablet that couldn't be easily achieved with Android. -- Avi -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
