I've decided not to buy the Nexus 4 for numerous reasons (no LTE, too wide, etc). So I'm looking at what other hardware (if any) options exist for running Ubuntu-Touch in October. I really, strongly prefer smaller hardware that is iPhone-5 size, especially a width of about 60mm.

Please do tell if you have any suggestions. Thanks.

We don't actually know if it will be unlocked. Traditionally, Motorola phones have been very tightly locked. If it is unlocked, someone will surely create a port for it. Canonical is only officially supporting Nexus 4, Nexus 7, and Nexus 10, insofar as I'm aware, but they created a tutorial to help advanced users port Ubuntu touch to new devices, and there is an activity community doing it for devices.

Will Ubuntu-Touch work on the upcoming Moto X from Google since it will be unlocked Nexus-like device? Or would it have to be officially ported before users will have any luck running Ubuntu-Touch on the device?
