Canonical announces phone sync for Ubuntu One subscribers

“Canonical, the company behind the Ubuntu Linux distribution,
announced today that its Ubuntu One cloud service will soon gain
support for mobile contact synchronization. The feature will be
available to users who are paying for the higher tier of Ubuntu One
service.

“Canonical officially launched the Ubuntu One service last year
alongside the release of Ubuntu 9.10. The service allows users to
keep files and some application data synchronized between multiple
computers. The company is planning to roll out several significant
new Ubuntu One features when Ubuntu 10.04, codenamed Lucid Lynx, is
released later this month. The new Ubuntu One music store, which is
integrated into the Rhythmbox audio player, will use Ubuntu One to
deploy purchased music to all of the user’s computers. Much like
the music store, the new mobile synchronization features are
opening up for testing, but will officially launch alongside Ubuntu
10.04.”
