I beg to differ. I think that the whole wiki site is totally confusing on top 
of still having references to the Remix edition.
Your planned categories of products and their target markets/devices should be 
at the top wiki view.

Subject: Re: Feedback on Ubuntu Mobile - 7-9" device edition.

Having read the Wiki now:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MobileTeam/Mobile/History
the details are clear. I guess anyone joining the community know isn't going to 
have a problem. It was just that I always had the Moblin builds as 'Ubuntu 
Mobile' in my head. Which is, in fact, more confusing that the terminology that 
has been chosen now.

The new naming makes sense:
Ubuntu Mobile for UMPC's and netbooks. (Ubuntu+Gnome)
Ubuntu MID for MIDs (Moblin+Hildon)
All created by the Ubuntu Mobile team.

It appears then that netbook remix is no more. Correct?

It was interesting to read that Ubuntu Mobile might include support for 
Silverthorne/Poulsbo-based devices, which include MIDs. I think its a great 
idea. The only Poulsbo-based device i have myself is the Kohjinsha SC3 which is 
a 7" device running Vista and it badly needs Ubuntu Mobile!

I totally agree with Steve's renaming suggestion. It makes a lot of sense to 
target this to the UMPC and Netbook markets. Also most Netbooks are going up to 
10" so why stop at 9"?

I think that your naming policy ATM is very confusing. How is the Ubuntu 
Netbook Remix related to this 7-9" device edition? From my perspective this is 
the true Ubuntu Netbook Edition. You should probably rename the Netbook Remix 
to something else or consolidate.

Firstly, well done! For a 'first try' as Oliver put it in his blog, its 
excelent on the Q1 Ultra. Far better than stuff i've tested before and in the 
case of the Q1 Ultra, a useable system.
Its aso showing promise for Atom based netbooks and even 
SIlverthorne/Poulsbo-based MIDs.
I tested/demoed it to about 60 people on UMPCPortal/live this evening and we 
were all pretty impressed.
Some early feedback here:
http://www.umpcportal.com/2008/09/ubuntu-mobile-edition-news-and-first-boot-video/

Will be doing more testing as are some of the readers and members at UMPCPortal.

One thing I want to mention though - MIDs, in the eyes of most people that have 
been following the segment, are only 4-6" devices.
When you say 7-9" MIDs its very confusing as you're really talking about UMPCs 
and Netbooks.
Can I suggest a rename to
Ubuntu Mobile Touch or Ubuntu Ultra Mobile or Ubuntu UMPC build. Or something 
similar that doesn't make it sound like a new version of the existing Ubuntu 
Mobile for 4-6" MIDs.

Steve.
