I was about to replace my old BB with an Android. The BB is still functioning so it will do until i get one with Ubuntu!

What matters is not if the OS will have all appzzzzz (or warezzzzz?) and gamezzzzz. Coming from Ubuntu, it will of course have a lot of them, even on ARM platform; it supports ARMHF platform, accurately. The real deal is:
1. will Canonical find one or more partners to produce their Ubuntu based smartphones,
2. will this OS be supported by carriers, like Vodafone, Verizon, Telekom, Orange, Telefonica and so on.
If not, I am afraid that, like Open Moko, it would remain a vaporware. If so, we can say a new challenger is coming soon.
Anyway, no hit and miss would be allowed, now, and they will have to catch up a lot of rivals.

This new os maybe good, but still on experimental stage. Smartphone now a days are ain't cheap for people to risk their money. So for me, I'd wait for a couple of years to see what they got.

If Blackberry can run 70,000 android apps using "Android Play", then why can't Canonical make Ubuntu run Android apps as well with a software interface?

I guess the success of Ubuntu mobile depends on how well it can run android apps. Nobody wants to buy "no appzzz no gamezzz" phone. And no developer wants to build app for an OS that nobody is using. (except if it uses the developer's favourite language)

This is the only OS that will make me consider switching from Droid. I am very hopeful but only time will tell.

until MS releases a version of windows that runs on your phone and desktop and tablet, all executing in native x86...

This looks promising, develop software on your desktop, copy it across to your mobile device and run it, well in theory, if they can pull it off, i'll switch from Android...

Android however is still going to be the leading choice for some time to come...

If canonical is clever enough, it may be the winner. I hope to see a fluid OS and I wish that the programmers will support it with high quality APP. I have used windows 7 ( like many out there), ubuntu desktop and android and IOS. Frankly talking I love ubuntu and android. You can change everything in it easily. But when it comes to business and using high quality apps, windows and IOS win. I like apple because it has sevre control on apps.
