Convergence on a Samsung phone

[fox]

You probably remember that Canonical was intending to bring convergence to Android phones, where you could run Ubuntu on the phone, plug it into a cradle and connect it to a desktop monitor and keyboard. They gave up on it, but apparently, Samsung has not. They issued a video showing it at an early stage, but demoed to Google personnel. Have a look at it (here); you'll be impressed. The implication is that when you travel and need a computer, you can leave the computer home and just take your phone if you have a desktop setup wherever you're going.

I am impressed. Note that it appears to be aimed at developers though if it can run Eclipse, there's no reason it can't run other things for anybody on the got that wants a desktop experience. Probably need a damn good smartphone, too.
