Hi all, I thought some might find this video interesting. It was made by the Ubuntu Desktop Engineering Manager Will Cooke, to demo some of the current convergence ideas we're working on. It might make some things make sense that we've been talking about for a few years now. Hope so.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3PUYoa1c9M For those that can't or won't watch it the video, what's shown is Ubuntu Touch based on Unity 8 and Mir on an x86 based tablet. Will demonstrated a few standard things like browsing and video playback, then switched to 'desktop' mode by attaching a bluetooth mouse. At that point the user interface adapts with applications splitting off into windowed mode assuming you want to work with it as a laptop. When the mouse is detached or switched off it reverts back to touch mode. It's quite a nice demo as it finally shows off an early version of what we're aiming for. Cheers, Al. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
