Hello,

regarding this I would like to kindly ask what are the plans on field of 
tablet with ubuntu touch.

Because I saw article about bq may have something prepared 
(http://tabletzona.es/2016/01/19/bq-tablet-ubuntu-mwc/) but I haven't 
found any mention about it on canonical side.

Personally I think best candidate from hardware point of view is nvidia 
shield k1, which seems to be able to run even desktop version of ubuntu, 
but hardware is not the only decision player I guess; then even if not 
officially, is there community attempt for building touch on K1? (not 
found in devices list on wiki) because the drivers seems to be available 
(https://developer.nvidia.com/shield-open-source) or is there any other 
problem with it which I have missed?

thanks in advance

Peter V
