There are several cooked ubuntus lying around for most of the devices..I wonder why developers have not started its development.
Please checkout ubuntu s website.
Its cooler than android in a lot of ways except one vital thing which all phones need thats play store..

you'll never get the play store because nothing on there would run anyway on ubuntu. for someone who's begging for ubuntu support, you sure don't seem to know anything about it.

Ubuntu is built from cm10.1 and there's even a pretty comprehensive guid on building Ubuntu on the wiki. Also I know that KA is working on it but I don't know how far he is. I'm sure he'll tell us if he makes any significant progress :)

Ubuntu for phone is still in Alpha. Doesn't make sense to port that to the Xperia Z just yet. I wouldn't mind a port though, as that would mean that we would have a working version for our phone when Ubuntu for phone goes RC. That being said, I am sure someone will release it for the Z sooner or later; probably being developed as we speak.

Krebapel is working on it? Brilliant!
I was thinking about building it myself, it appears that now I don't have to! :D
