+Canonical, sponsors of Ubuntu Linux, have [announced details][2] regarding the company's Ubuntu Mobile and Embedded OS, a mobile version of its popular operating system. First [mentioned last month][1], today's announcement at the Computex conference in Taipei has roadmap information as well as compatibility details.
+
+Ubuntu Mobile will be available in October 2007, which coincides with next version of desktop client, but in addition, Canonical is reportedly working directly with device manufacturers to get the OS pre-installed on actual devices in 2008.
+
+According to the press release, the Ubuntu Mobile and Embedded version of Ubuntu will be developed in partnership with Intel, and will target, not phones but "mobile Internet devices" (MIDs) running on Intel's new low-power processors.
+
+Think Nokia's N800 web tablet, for instance, not your Razr.
+
+Canonical says Ubuntu Mobile will be stripped down to use a smaller memory footprint, but still deliver the spectrum of content, with video, sound and fast and full-fledged web browsing on the MID platform.
