Dialogue: 0,0:00:00.00,0:00:03.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Convergence is the future of computing.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:03.00,0:00:10.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So we've reshaped Ubuntu to combine the mobility of a smartphone and the power of a desktop on a single device.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:10.00,0:00:14.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We unveiled "Ubuntu for Phones" at Mobile World Congress in February
Dialogue: 0,0:00:14.00,0:00:17.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and CNET declared it the BEST OF SHOW.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:17.00,0:00:20.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Operators love the design
Dialogue: 0,0:00:20.00,0:00:23.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and some of the world's largest have now joined our advisory group.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:23.00,0:00:27.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We have also gained the support of key silicon vendors to the mobile industry,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:27.00,0:00:33.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so now, finally, we are talking to the companies who actually make phones,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:33.00,0:00:39.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with the goal that Ubuntu will arrive on mid an high end devices in 2014, right on schedule.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:39.00,0:00:42.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Along the way we learned something really interesting.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:42.00,0:00:48.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We learned that new mobile technologies get proven in the lab but then hit a production road block,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:48.00,0:00:55.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because manufacurers don't want to select a new technology for device that are supposed to sell ten or fifty million units,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:55.00,0:00:58.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,until they know it can ben produced at that scale.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:58.00,0:01:02.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I mean, in the motorcar industry we have the Formula 1 to test new technology,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:02.00,0:01:04.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but the mobile industry has nothing like that.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:04.00,0:01:11.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There is no premium segment for expert driver, is like everyone is driving mass produced sedans.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:11.00,0:01:20.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We don't have a consumer testbed for cutting edge technologies, but we do have a new mechanism for driving innovation: crowdfunding!
Dialogue: 0,0:01:20.00,0:01:28.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Since the Ubuntu vision of convergence for the phone and the PC will push the limit of mobile computing and since we are working with industry already,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:28.00,0:01:34.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and since millions of you are passionate about the latest and greatest phone technologies software and hardware
Dialogue: 0,0:01:34.00,0:01:40.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we are in a perfect position toghether, to change the way innovation comes to the mobile industry.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:40.00,0:01:46.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, we have explored every aspect of the phone, spoken to companies that have interest in next generation technologies
Dialogue: 0,0:01:46.00,0:01:56.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and drawned up the blueprint for a concept device that brings together the most exciting innovations that are real, but still on the horizon.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:56.00,0:01:59.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We called it the "Ubuntu Edge".
Dialogue: 0,0:01:59.00,0:02:02.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Beautifull, inside and out.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:02.00,0:02:06.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The body will be crafted from a single piece of textured metal,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:06.00,0:02:09.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,making it really solid in your hand.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:09.00,0:02:13.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It will have precisely chamfered edges for the optimal grip,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:13.00,0:02:19.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and perfect control of the edge gestures that are central to the Ubuntu mobile experience.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:19.00,0:02:22.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The display is the window into your content.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:22.00,0:02:26.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The phone industry today is a bit like the camera industry five years ago:
Dialogue: 0,0:02:26.00,0:02:31.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,stucked in the megapixel race, chasing wasted resolution.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:31.00,0:02:35.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What's much more interesting is color accuracy and brightness,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:35.00,0:02:44.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so we'll select the panel with the best combination of: resolution, dynamic range and color accuracy.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:44.00,0:02:50.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The size of Edge screen has to be just right for Edge gestures to give you total control in one hand.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:50.00,0:02:55.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Based on our testing with prototypes, a 4.5 inches screen is the perfect size,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:55.00,0:03:01.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and to protect the display we will replace glass with sapphire crystal,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:01.00,0:03:05.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a material so hard you'll need diamonds in your pocket to leave a scratch.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:05.00,0:03:08.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The same goes for the camera,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:08.00,0:03:12.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because phone cameras are used for personal shots, without stage lighting,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:12.00,0:03:19.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so we'd like to optimize for low light, fast response and upclose pictures, rather than just megapixels.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:19.00,0:03:23.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you are like us, you travel a lot and you love bandwith.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:23.00,0:03:28.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Today's phones fall back to slower older protocols when they roam,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:28.00,0:03:32.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but future phones will have access to LTE everywhere.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:32.00,0:03:40.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So we'll raise the bar with dual LTE antennas, for full speed 4G in both Europe and the USA.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:40.00,0:03:47.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Convergence is the key idea we are exploring,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:47.00,0:03:48.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so this phone needs to be a potent little PC when docked.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:48.00,0:03:53.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We'll select the very latest, fastest multicore processor as we finalize the design
Dialogue: 0,0:03:53.00,0:03:59.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,along with at least 4 GB of RAM and a massive 128 GB of storage.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:59.00,0:04:02.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It is going to redefine PC portability.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:02.00,0:04:06.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Finally, one of the key areas of innovation today is the battery.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:06.00,0:04:13.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We selected silicon-anode technology as the most promising candidate for extended life and power density.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:13.00,0:04:19.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This project is all about cutting edge hardware, but being Ubuntu, we can push the limits of software too.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:19.00,0:04:23.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,As well as Ubuntu you will be able to boot Android,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:23.00,0:04:30.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so you can keep using your existing app collection and experience full convergence, right away with Ubuntu for Android.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:30.00,0:04:33.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, we are not trying to get into the phone business,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:33.00,0:04:37.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we are working with phone companies for normal, mid and high-end phones.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:37.00,0:04:41.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This project is just for us, the real enthusiasts.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:41.00,0:04:49.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That's why a crowdfunding approach is perfect, if there are enough of use interested in pushing the limits of the phone, then it will happen.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:49.00,0:04:54.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The "Ubuntu Edge" will be a limited edition production run available only to supporters of this campaign.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:54.00,0:05:00.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If it works well, we might even do it anually, just to keep the head of the curve.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:00.00,0:05:04.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you are like us, you are a little impatient to experience the future.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:04.00,0:05:08.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You like to try every new device, just to see how they are improving.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:08.00,0:05:15.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And with this project, for the first time, you'll have the ability to try the most exciting technologies long before everyone else.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:15.00,0:05:19.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,To make it happen, we'll have to smash every record in crowdfunding history,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:19.00,0:05:22.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it's a crazy, beautifull idea.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:22.00,0:05:26.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But if there are enough of us out there, enough enthusiast who want
