Ubuntu Edge smartphone waiting for $32 million

Ubuntu, the software developer behind Linux OS, has announced plans to develop its first smartphone that will be a smartphone-PC hybrid – The Ubuntu Edge.

Canonical (the company behind Ubuntu) is planning to raise $32 million of funds in 31 days to produce 40,000 devices that will run both Linux and Android OS. The company has chosen Indiegogo, a crowd funding website to help it in raising funds for the upcoming smartphone.

[blockquote cite=”Canonical’s founder, Mark Shuttleworth”] Linux-based Ubuntu is different to other smartphone operating systems because it can run the same desktop applications as a PC installed with its software and it will have substantially more RAM than a typical high-end phone.
