II. Introduction to Ubuntu for Android

Ubuntu for Android is designed to be "cell phone-centric". It consists of four parts, one display, one keyboard, one mouse, and one base. As long as the Android phone is inserted into the base, Ubuntu for Android will display the corresponding desktop interface, and can also use the built-in applications to operate on the information on the opponent's machine. Ubuntu for Android can not only connect to the mobile phone camera, but also directly call the mobile phone and receive and send text messages. This is a great application that integrates desktop systems and mobile terminals. It is simpler and more effective than all remote desktop solutions.
