Question.......

I read all the comments, and I am now curious.....

What is to stop Canonical from releasing their own branded phones right 
now?? Just because the current 'offering' isn't Canonical branded, Is 
there anything that prevents them from selling a Canonical branded phone 
later on??

After all, now we know that a linux based phone actually works, what is 
to stop Canonical (or even myself) from seeking out an independent phone 
OEM, buying them in bulk and rebranding them, complete with the linux 
software already installed?

Great list all, I hope to see the linux phone succeed! It's about time 
we take back control of our own phones and block all the 'features' that 
rob us of our privacy!!
