Canonical's mobile based operating system Ubuntu Touch, which is also a Linux adoption, is all set to come pre-installed on high-end smartphones by next year, 2014.
Canonical and Ubuntu's Founder and Chief Operating Officer Mark Shuttleworth made it clear, that the company has signed it's first ever deal with the manufacturer, in one of his latest interviews with the media, held at LeWeb conference.
"We have concluded our first set of agreements to ship Ubuntu on mobile phones. We've shifted gears from 'making a concept' to 'it's going to ship.' That has a big impact on the team," said Shuttleworth.
While the manufacturer is still being under the shadows, we also have doubts regarding it's compatibility in future with the previously fragmented Ubuntu Touch OS for Android smartphones, as this is an open-source project.
"We make no claims for Android compatibility, but we make it super easy for you to target both at the same time and super cool for you to do so," added the CEO.
