Put your sleuthing caps on dear readers, we’ve got a new case for you. A blurry video has surfaced of a Sony Ericsson P990i running a mobile version of Ubuntu. With the aid of a soldering gun and “special software,” someone by the name of Wizolabo (already credited with a homemade theremin) seems to have produced a working copy of the favored Linux distro running on the favored SE superphone. It all looks promising enough, but it’s not the first time we’ve seen video edited and choreographed to look like final product. Made all the more dubious from a dearth of instructions or detail. Check the video after the break and let us know what you think.
