We don't need super-high-end phone. We need a phone that can be bought all
the time (for now, we can't buy any phone (except second hand, etc.).
And the most important thing - Canonical now have a lot more knowledge
about phones than before. Maybe now some costs can be lower? In example OS
is more completed (so software part should be cheaper) than few years ago.

Crowdfunding campaign ver. 2? ;)

Best regards,
