Bug Description

After going back and forth with Ivanka, I think we have some good replacement strings. Here they are:

Files Anywhere
Backup and access your files from Windows, Ubuntu, or Mobile.

Keep Connected
Unify your contacts across Desktop, Mobile, and Web.

Rock Out
Your Music library at your fingertips with Android, iPhone, and AirPlay.
Plus the Ubuntu One Music Store to grow your collection.

Stay Productive
Keep your Firefox Bookmarks and Tomboy Notes synced.

I've also experimented with using iconography to further draw interest and strengthen the message of the strings.

I'm closing bug #706897 as a dup, since they both tackle the same issue.

Daniel, do you have Cristian Parrino's go ahead to do this changes?

Hey Naty,

Just talked to Cristian, he would like on of the strings changed slightly. I've updated the bug description to reflect that. Also, I've attached the icons I proposed in my mockup, he also approved those.

Thanks very much!
