Hi,
Reading all the online articles about Ubuntu TV, it is clear that it will
ship by the end of the year and will be available in US, China and UK
(mostly). Even though Canonical are not saying much about other countries,
what are the chances that we will get to see a Ubuntu TV in India any time
soon?
Check this out:

The question is available on what? Who is going to put Ubuntu TV on
their hardware? People buy TV by brand and features. We have a 3D
Samsung Smart TV and when we go to the market we see LG, Panasonic,
Toshiba, Philips, Sony and Samsung. All these are putting Androids on
their TVs (Samsung is using Bada I guess). Canonical has failed with
Music, Cloud and Tablets. I doubt Ubuntu TV will succeed. The company is
ignoring what real users want and is overjoyed by the the fans which is
OMGUbuntu and is making all the wrong moves. Unless the company cracks a
deal with all of these major players, I don't see a future of Ubuntu TV.
Who is going to by XYZ china made TV?
