Canonical offers guide for porting Ubuntu Touch to run on most Android devices
It turns out the process is pretty straightforward: Because most of the hard work has already been done by the developers behind the popular CyanogenMod custom ROM for Android devices. Ubuntu Touch relies on a stripped-down version of CyanogenMod 10.1 for its Linux kernel, and support for hardware including audio, video, graphics, and modems. So the Ubuntu Phablet git repository is actually just a mirror of CyanogenMod 10.1, but without features that aren’t needed such as Dalvik (the Java virtual machine that actually lets you run Android apps on an Android device). CyanogenMod is capable of running on dozens of Android phones and tablets. And if you’ve got a device …

Adobe Photoshop Touch is already available for Android (and iOS), in fact an update was released just two months ago, but that doesn’t mean that Amazon’s Kindle devices have been supported, until now.
