" Considering how much better many of the apps are, perhaps Canonical should be thinking of a way to integrate a full Android layer into Ubuntu.
You mean like Blackberry did in Playbook? "
That's exactly what I mean although, at least in the case of the Playbook, the user interface wouldn't be a problem the way it would on a typical pc. Do the emulation correctly on a tablet and it could be seemless indeed, but try the same with a keyboard and mouse... Well, I think that would very much resemble what we've seen another operating system try with less than satisfactory results.

You mean like Blackberry did in Playbook? That would be a smart idea, and it would have some attractiveness to be able to run all Android apps and as an added bonus be able to run regular desktop Linux apps.
