Echoes of Mobile World Congress in Barcelona are still ringing and we return to Ubuntu and strategy multidevice , from an interview with ZDNet by Mark Shuttleworth, founder of Canonical, whose statements more Featured you can read below.

 ubuntu shuttlworth 500x375 Mark Shuttleworth: People would think that Ubuntu is better than Windows 8 on tablets

Makes about four years that we launched our vision-phones, tablets, PCs, TVs, and build a design team that understands the challenge “, Shuttleworth said. “ The result you see is really elegant. This [tablet version] is the missing link , the bridge between what we show six weeks ago and the PC. In a sense, we have been hiding. You can go back to 2009, see things that landed in the distro then and see now why these pieces have come together “.

As the corporate sector, Shuttleworth is very confident with Ubuntu for tablets, which it describes as “the first tablet truly safe to use for military, financial and medical “. On the security of Ubuntu for tablets highlights the full disk encryption , plus encryption separately for each system user . Also sees it as a more reliable option for BYOD phenomenon (using personal devices at work), especially at a time when “ malware on Android is a real problem and this is a much more clean “he says.

the question of when the market will see the first models of smartphone and tablet with Ubuntu, surprise, no specific dates or so: “I think phones in January, April tablets “, indicates Shuttleworth, speaking of January and April 2014 . “We have launched [system] for the four devices Nexus and the community is already working in some 20 ports, some for older devices “.

Finally, Shuttleworth is asked how many downloads have had the system “s é in the first six hours we reached the 75,000 downloads, which is fine ” replies. “ We have much work to do, but we have some great partners back and the team is very motivated. We have the opportunity to profoundly change the historical balance of Linux on the PC. Is to is better than Windows 8 as experience and that is not crazy, serious people in the industry are saying ‘that’s better than Windows 8′ [ in tablets], concludes.

As you all know, yesterday presented Canonical Ubuntu for tablets . Not that we spend so important announcement, but like all technological means the world were writing about the same thing at the same time, we let the news to our fellow MuyComputer. But MuyLinux could not stay without providing this information and it is what we do now.

 500x331 Tablets Ubuntu Ubuntu for tablets Walked

The first thing to say is that if someone is expecting a HTC tablet with Ubuntu , as some rumors suggested as the presentation of Canonical times seemed more casual and HTC’s account is is not well aware of the progress of the Taiwanese market. What happened had to happen and HTC announced its upcoming ‘cucumber’, HTC One

Meanwhile, Canonical announced Ubuntu for tablets, coming full circle composed of the distro GNU / Linux we all know, Android Ubuntu, Ubuntu TV and Ubuntu for smartphones. In short, an OS to rule them all (devices), which One Ring.

Going

data, Ubuntu for tablets will be very similar in appearance to that seen in Ubuntu Mobile, which is neither more nor less than the Unity interface adapted in the circumstances.

 385x500 portrait tablet and came home Ubuntu for tablets

is said to be fully customizable, and multitasking will advanced voice control and allow a multi use real . This last point is the juiciest, because current mobile systems are quite restrictive in this respect (although Android is known that points in that direction, as for multitasking).

Although

are likely to see over time with Ubuntu preinstalled tablets, how could it be otherwise, you may want to download the system for use in its own device, subject to compliance with some technical requirements minimum that are not so minimal.

 Ubuntu on tablets 4 630x273 500x216 Then came Ubuntu for tablets

Otherwise, Ubuntu for tablets is the point made by Ubuntu for smarthphones gestural use , prepared for devices without physical buttons , application support , etc.. In terms of technologies, as well.

And, as they said in that mythical TVE program, “until I can read.” And this Ubuntu for tablets not really see in action until next week , in which the product Canonical officially presented to the media at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Perhaps this is why some media have described today’s announcement as disappointing (hey, today’s announcement, not Ubuntu).

Then we leave with the video of rigor in which Mark Shuttleworth resubmits system characteristics. And, I have to say, as on the previous occasion-with-Ubuntu for smartphones, the look is fantastic.

Finally, morning will release an early version we could call the ‘Ubuntu Mobile’, which initially will be installed on smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S III, Galaxy Nexus or Nexus 4, and tablets like the Nexus Nexus 7 and 10. And a reminder: our fellow MuyComputer conduct a special fund in the coming days.

So far

official information. The “unofficial”, with a little luck, we tell you when we can.

New Processor Intel i7 3689Y to 3689Y Tablets Intel i7 (Ivy Bridge)

New Intel i7 Processor for Tablets 3689Y (Ivy Bridge)

new intel processors Ivy Bridge Y-series still have of launching from. The current plan is to release two SKUs Ivy in Q1 2013, both dual core, and later in 2013 Intel plans will replace them with Haswell Y-series, with even lower TDP (so much lower consumption).

The fastest Core i7 called 3689Y and has two cores and 2 threads and a base clock of 1.5 GHz with the help of Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 , the top of a single core clock reaches impressively 2.6GHz, while the maximum turbo dual-core clock stops at 2.4 GHz, which is still impressive. This center has Intel HD 4000 graphics that recorded between 350 MHz and 860 MHz with turbo.

Ads:

This new kernel supports 1600 MHz DDR3 and DDR3L, has 4 MB of cache and 13W TDP, which is impressively low. We have explained that represents SDP standard power dissipation and Intel expect to be in this part 7W.

runner is called Core i5 3439Y and has the same two cores and two threads, a 1.5GHz base clock, but the turbo core clock stops only at 2.3 GHz, while that in dual-core 2.10GHz arrives only. The speed of the graphics memory medium TDP and remain the same, but there is a difference in the size of the cache. Core i5 with 3MB 3439Y comes instead of 4 MB Core i7 variant Y 3689Y.

Haswell version Y-series will not come until at least Q3 2013, if not even later, which means that it takes more to optimize decision-TDP of 17W, of the current series so necessary for future line of 13W.

Nvidia Tegra 4 will start the USB 3.0 revolution in tablets

Wayne, also known as Tegra 4 is coming out at CES 2013, or 10 days from now. Nvidia has a day ahead of scheduled events at CES 2013, and the company could show some tablets and hybrids based on the new Tegra SoC. Let’s talk about “Wayne” Tegra 4 before it’s official.

Nvidia had to Wayne set to launch in Q4 2012, but had to wait for the partners to release designs based on it, and most of them wanted to do it at CES 2013. European phones based on Nvidia Tegra 4 Wayne will appear in February at the Mobile World Congress.

Announcements:

This is the first quad-core A15 design that will bring a significant performance boost over Tegra 3 and we are hearing that the new Quad core will give a performance boost greater than the difference between Tegra 3 on Tegra 2. Furthermore, the fact that the new chip is 28nm and supports DDR3L also promises greater efficiency.

Support USB 3.0 is something that is getting us more excited, as is usually quite slow to download anything on tablets, mobile and hybrid. USB 3.0 on tablets increase the speed of data transfer and Tegra 4 will be one of the first chips to support USB 3.0 , and many consumers will appreciate the faster data transfer rates.

Another thing that caught our attention is the dual display support and will be able to have two separate displays. The Tegra 3-based devices and can only reflect the output not display two separate screens. It could be a very interesting feature for mating or hybrid devices.

PengPod, a project to manufacture low-cost Linux tablets

class=”article first_main_article” readability=”59″>

Although there are current projects (Vivaldi) and future intended to make Linux entry in tablets is completely not talk because of Android tablets, careful project developers have wanted to launch his own proposal, called PengPod, and that tablets offer 7 and 10 inches based on Linux and with very competitive prices.

 500x334 PengPod pengpod 1000, a project to manufacture tablets low cost Linux

The proposal for now is just an idea that needs funding, and are trying to drive through IndieGoGo crowdfunding, a platform similar to Kickstarter. The creator of the initiative, Neal Peacock, want to reach the $ 49,000 investment by stakeholders, a number that seems to us somewhat short for a segment as the tablets.

Interestingly

tablets already exist physically, and its creator wants invest that money in creating a Linux that makes the most of the benefits of the two existing models

The first would

PengPod 1000 , with 10-inch screen and 1024 × 600 pixel resolution, along with 1GB of RAM, 8 GB of storage, 2 USB ports, an HDMI port and a front camera of 0.3 M pixels. In addition a microSD slot that would allow the tablet booting from another operating system that was not in memory. The price of these tablets will be $ 185 if you come to raise the amount sought.

The second model is the PengPod 700 , with a 7-inch 800 × 480 pixel resolution, 1.3-Mpixel camera and a USB port, along with 1 Gbyte of RAM and 8 Gbytes of storage. This model will cost $ 120 , except that you may be one of the first investors to contribute $ 99, which will have one reserved.

IndieGoGo campaign to raise investment also another device, the PengStick , which is basically identical to the current Miniand MK802, and all of them-both tablets as this stick-the idea is Android provide serial-indeed, as you say the devices already exist physically, but Android is the OS preinstalled – as Linux through the fully functional version for these devices. If you want to bet on this project, you can do in the IndieGoGo page.
