 Hey, this is Vlad with The Verge and I'm taking a quick first look at the brand new, freshly announced Ubuntu Phone OS. So this is what canonical comes to welcome screen, not a lock screen, which you can actually unlock by swiping to one side, take it to the home screen, or swiping in from the other side, you can get a list of your most regularly used applications and then jump right into the application itself. Same functionality is available when you have an app open. Swipe down, get yourself to the home screen like so. You can swipe down from the top like so and bring in the messages. If you swipe down on the little messages icon right here at the top, we can take a look at your battery settings, connectivity, sound, etc. If you swipe in from the right, you bring in the latest application and in chronological order, all the applications that you might have had open. There's a little bit of lag, but obviously that is to be expected. These are the first demo devices we're looking at development version of the OS. It's running on Galaxy Nexus. Canonical promised that they'll have the images for you to download and install on your Galaxy Nexus within the next couple of weeks. It expects developers to start building out the ecosystem for Ubuntu phones using those devices. The first shipping devices then we might see early in 2014, but the first time that you might see something similar to this will be Ubuntu for Android. Shipping phones with that OS should be coming out at some point in 2013. It's just a very quick look at this swipe-centric interface. It reminds me of the Nokia N9. The fact that there are basically no buttons here, everything is swipe-based, edge-based. It does look good and attractive provided this lag is at some point eliminated.
