Bug Description

The splash screen in the Ubuntu One installer needs to be updated.

The splash screen should show the updated copy.

See attached image for design decision.

The new strings will be:

_('Discover your personal cloud')

_("Store files, photos, and music safely in Ubuntu One and access them on any of your devices.")
_("Upload photos from your mobile instantly, and they're ready to share with friends or post online.")
_('Stream your music collection to all of your devices and listen to any song - online or offline.')

Since the last release of Ubuntu, the UI and branding for the splash screen has been updated on other platforms - specifically Windows - so this work will bring the "home platform" of Ubuntu in line with the latest changes. From a UX perspective we need to show a unified experience on Ubuntu One across all platforms, but more importantly it would be detrimental if our own platform carried an older, outdated version than can be seen elsewhere.

For the record, this application is only used on Ubuntu.

Also, Robert, can we avoid having the specifics of upsell language in this UI? There is no way in this UI for the user to say "OK, yes please let me subscribe to streaming and get more storage," and having specifics such as free trial, 30 days, and 20 GB of storage, means we have to fix it *and* all the translations of it, if we ever change those details in the future. And yes, we've already hit this problem in the past with ubuntuone-control-panel, the last time we made changes to the plans.

Also, specifying "Android and iOS" here will have the same problem if we ever stop supporting one (or if we add support for more).

There is a simplified version of this which requires very minor text changes. See attached image.
