Yeah, I loved that, but it wasn't a mobile OS, it was just Ubuntu running as an Android app. It didn't even have a UI om the phone, IIRC.

No it isn't an app. It is actually the full Ubuntu OS running on your android device. The point wasn't for it to be a touch screen, the point was that you could dock your device and suddenly be using a full desktop OS with all your desktop grade applications.

Yes, but it's running inside Android. It's not a complete OS that takes over the phone.

No, no its not running inside Android. Android and its Java environment run alongside/at the same time as ubuntu.
