I wish they would make it easy for a Windows user to build a bootable disk for Ubuntu Mobile … like they have for 8.04. Even though it is still Beta I want to try it. As a 4-5 hour a day user of a SamsungQ1U I am sure I can provide some constructive feedback!

Any idea if this will work with a Wacom stylus/digitizer? I’d love to try installing it on the VY11 – heck, if you could get HWR, this might be the perfect notes and surfing platform…
