Ubuntu phones for electronic/robotics prototyping

 

Was reading the Hacker News commentary on the new RPi case, and many people
were wondering why not use phones for things we use RPi for, since phones
are very cheap now and have a lot of extra hardware built in - sensors,
display, connectivity.

Has anyone done any experimentation  ie. adding a USB GPIO breakout board
to an Ubuntu phone? using something like
