This question already has an answer here:

Where can I get a device with 'Ubuntu for phones' pre-installed? 1 answer

I really like the look of Ubuntu touch and I want it ASAP, however, I am NOT willing to buy a device simply to port ubuntu touch on it. I don't want to void all warranties and take any risks. Therefore, I am really just waiting for official ubuntu touch hardware (devices made for ubuntu touch).

I can't find any rumours or estimated release dates online, in fact, I can't find out anything at all. Can anyone? If so, what and where?

When do you think they'll be official hardware?

What price do you think it'll be?

Do you think canonical/ubuntu will manufacture it themselves?

Thanks, Zach
