I found this post whilst googling.
Instead of going after both the tablet and smartphone with a newly-improved touch-enabled version of Ubuntu Linux, Canonical will be focusing its efforts in 2013 on smartphones.
And here is another portion of the article
At the same time, this isn't just a smartphone operating system. Jono Bacon, Ubuntu's community manager, added on his blog. that "Ubuntu for phones is not just limited to just the Operating System on the phone screen itself. Ubuntu also has the technology, as demonstrated with Ubuntu For Android, to boot a full Ubuntu desktop from the phone when it is docked with a screen. This provides a complete Ubuntu experience in your pocket, for both your phone and your desktop, with a clean consistent look across both screens, and with all your content available on your phone and desktop using Ubuntu One. This is revolutionary."

My Thoughts:
Honestly guys I think this is a big step for ubuntu, its not only nearly eliminated the need to use the terminal, its also managing to make an ubuntu smartphone that can also work as a computer. which opens a new door of modifying for those who like to give their Operating systems a makeover and turn it into something completely different by allowing us to both modify the entire look of our desktop but possible the look of our phones OS too.
