Canonical formalizes Ubuntu for Android, the "webtop" within reach of all

That today is perhaps a day to mark on your calendar: posterity will remember as the day on which the merger between Ubuntu and Android became something more than an exercise in style or just something for nerds, it became easier to go home, put its Android phone in its dock on the monitor and find yourself home with the Unity interface already started, that many wondered how they ever managed without it before.
When about a year ago he was presented the system of Motorola Atrix WebTop it remained very fascinated, wondering if it was not what the future of the smartphone: Pocket and faithful companions of our pilgrimage to the newspaper, and while able to replace a desktop PC once you are at home, in practice the custodians of our entire digital life. The response from Canonical seems indeed affirmative.
To demonstrate the company has used a modified course Atrix 2 with software used in front of you like a normal smartphone and fully functional version of Android, which is connected to a monitor you can make use of the Ubuntu desktop, and not the interface in some way simplified that the owners of the Motorola Lapdock know.
The integration between the two systems is in fact very deep, we can access from thunderbird to mail stored in the APA Android, Chromium resume the interrupted session on the mobile browser, the gallery will be displayed in an instant, and we can also access the phonebook , and SMS in general launch any installed app on Android. It 'also Ubuntu TV, to complete the transformation of all of our smartphones into a media center laptop, and just when we go out we can resume work exactly where we left off in "desktop mode".
So we have already? Not really, in the sense that the project has started but not completed, there are still several bugs to fix, but Canonical said that the hardware is not optimized for the new OS, which will not be a problem in the future on which the models' company will work in collaboration with various producers.
