        I and many, many others own Blackberry Passports. Blackberry has probably dropped its own OS and is trying out Android on its future phones. Passport owners are extremely loyal to the phone and the BB10 OS. But will require a functional alternative for an OS in the future. Is it possible to get ubuntu on a Blackberry Passport or is it locked down too strongly by Blackberry?

        I hear that the actual hardware is locked down, so I poise the question, Passport has a slot for a 64 GB memory card, could ubuntu be placed on one and run from there?
