There is a 20 minute video by SABDFL here: http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/phone which is well worth making time to watch. He says that any phone which runs the Android kernel will run the Ubuntu kernel. I also have a Samsung Galazy S3 Android phone and will be very reluctant to upgrade it to Ubuntu as it is a top of the range item unless there is a thoroughly tried, tested and proven upgrade path to take. -- Regards, Andy
