First, that's not true: almost all features are ported.

Then, Android is quite much more far from a Linux desktop stack than an Ubuntu phone. It notably has a different (very broken) libc, pthread implementation and different audio output stack...

Well, it is true...if "almost all" the feature but not all of them are ported, then its not "fully ported".

You want DVD and Blu-Ray playback on Android? Or external cameras?

Porting and shipping all features in the default build are 2 very different things...

I'm not saying it makes sense, but the GP is correct that its not a full port. Also, there are android devices that can take both CD/DVD and eternal cameras, so it isn't too far fetched

Sorry, but we'll have to agree to disagree here. It's like saying the version on Windows is not a full port because there are some plugins missing compared to the Linux version. And vice-versa.

Very little features not possible (mostly because of the OS) can hardly be considered as "not fully ported" as meant by salient.

I've been using the beta[1], it works pretty well. If you live in the US you'll have to grab an apk elsewhere[2].
