Can the Ubuntu Edge campaign make it? Price discounted to $695 with 2 weeks to go

When Canonical first announced plans to bring us a dual-booting Android and Ubuntu OS smartphone that would be open source and ripe for developers, we got excited. When we saw how they'd gather the funds to do this… well, let's just say we gulped a bit. The company decided to get the community involved with an IndieGoGo campaign, one that set a target of a whopping $32 million by August 21st. So where's the progress now? As of the time of this writing, the campaign sits at $8.6 million in pledges. That's only 1x4th of the amount they need with just two weeks to go. Things aren't looking well.
