Branches of the previously free-to-modify code have already been released. This could be a good thing for Ubuntu Mobile OS.

My favorite Linux distrobution has finally come to phones! Think of it like a better Android. One that doesn't sit there for 30 seconds before finally connecting the call.

News: Smartphone use as car keys by 2015

Barf. Do not want. Steal my phone means you can steal my car (because I can't call to cancel/block anything...because you stole my phone).

News: 1st non-Google company gets autonomous drivers license

I like it. This company is the company that sells tech to ALL of the car companies. If they can get this down, we might start seeing automatic driving in low-speed (a.k.a. rush hour) settings. So, if you are stuck in traffic, just turn on the auto-pilot (won't change lanes, won't hit car in front of your, will keep up) and you can read or something. When traffic picks back up, take back over and drive.
