Tizen is much the remnants of the Meego Intel project.

How that will play out launching first on ARM I have no idea.
I thought Intel had their foot in Tizen, Surly then they would not want it to work on ARM chips.

I myself would never buy a Intel based phone, laptop, computer or tablet. but I am being given a Intel based laptop soon.

Why wouldn't you buy an Intel product?.....

There you go.

"Whatever your take on the sustainability of iMessage -- an iOS-exclusive messaging solution may be a losing battle in the long run -- Apple sent a clear signal: We want to own messaging on our platform"

To be honest, IOS has really never been like Android. I'm near certain they keep suing Samsung to play that red herring game of pretending Android is like IOS.

Wasn't the Ubuntu dropped?
The crowd fund campaign may not have been successful and they may have given up on funding a handset, but they have struck a deal with two hardware manufacturers.
