Wait is Over... Ubuntu is coming to power your phones

How many of us were waiting for this good news. While Android is already dominating mobile market which is also based on Linux kernel, Canonical says their OS can run on any phone which runs Android's current version.

 Most powerful and loved Linux based operating system "Ubuntu" is soon coming to power your smartphones. Unlike other mobile operating systems Canonical has come up with a powerful operating system which can work on both Mobiles as well as PC when connected to keyboard and monitor. 





Have a look what's going on:

“We are confident that Ubuntu will ship on phones from large manufacturers in 2013,” says Canonical founder Mark Shuttleworth.



The new version of Ubuntu has been designed to work on last and current generation Android handsets  which share the Linux kernel. There are already thousands of apps available on ubuntu store. 

Developer's will be urged to adapt their apps interfaces to support mobile interface while preserving the core functionality.

A version of the code will shortly be made available to developers to start adapting their apps.
The firm then plans to release a file for Galaxy Nexus phones by February, and later for other handsets and ultimately tablet computers as well.
Mr. Mark notes that thanks to Ubuntu for Android — which was released last year — users will be able to try the interface on their Android phones without committing to it. But Ubuntu won’t run Android applications, because although Android is based on Linux it has its own application environment.
Canonical has created a buzz in tech world let's see how successful they will be. All the best Ubuntu.
