Phoronix: Ubuntu MID Edition 8.04 Released

Two months after Ubuntu 8.04 LTS was released and almost one month after Ubuntu Netbook Remix was first showcased, Ubuntu MID Edition 8.04 has been released. This is the newest Canonical product in the Ubuntu family and is designed for Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs). Ubuntu MID Edition is a cut-down version of Ubuntu 8.04 for the desktop but with many packages sliced away and with optimizations for Intel's Atom Processor and mobile software enhancements as a result of the Moblin project.

Glad to finally see a official release. I noticed on the screenshots that the Cheese app is showing color bars. Anyone downloaded this for the Q1U and installed yet? I am curious if both the cameras work? Previous builds did not have working cams.
