Great campaign, I hope it blows through the $32m mark by a mile.
That said, is Canonical leveraging any of its own in-house sales talent to bring existing relationships on board to support this campaign?
As you may know, Google unveiled the Nexus 7 yesterday which will be available as an "unlocked" LTE device, able to operate on AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon in the US. Will the Ubuntu Edge also be unlocked in the this fashion?
Have participating carriers in the CAG advised at all as to whether you will pursue VoLTE functionality for voice or will you use traditional methods.
Has a decision been made as to which direction will be pursued to accommodate the LTE radios? Qualcomm RF360 front end?
While the final product will vary, as the Edge idea was being hatched, what kind of CPU was part of that vision?
How satisfied are you with the media coverage of this campaign?
My questions are hardware centric because this hardware will be unique and the grand scheme of things and I am not worried about the operating system environment at all, the proof of concept work done to date has already sold me.
All the best and looking forward to getting my Ubuntu Edge!!
