Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
The Ubuntu One launcher item takes up precious default space in the launcher. It is a link to the Ubuntu One Control Panel which is also present in the Messaging Menu and System Settings and can be found easily in the Dash. To use Ubuntu One, you just need to configure it the first time; after that, many people will not need to open the Control Panel.
The launcher should not be used as an advertisement for Ubuntu services. Perhaps a Welcome wizard as was used in Windows Vista and 7 or a Tour feature like Windows XP could help if Canonical does not feel consumers are aware of the Ubuntu One features.

I had something similar with my upgrade. I was not able to dump any info, as my box crashed completely. Took me 2 days to get it back online.
