But it's still a really enticing device, I'd love to see a direct comparison of hardware specs with the - still more expensive - iPad mini. I know the latter is much older now, but the difference is still pretty hilarious. If only someone would build an Android 4:3 device, I'd buy that in a heartbeat. | ||

Not too mad. Not mad. Well maybe I can find some guy and sell him my almost new 3G Nexus 7 v1 for 150€ or something. | ||

At the time when the Nexus 4 came out, I had to buy a phone and ended up buying a Galaxy Nexus at almost the same price, just because the Nexus 4 was continuously out of stock TT. I hope this time they'll try to anticipate. | ||

Seeing a pretty big battery wakelock that has to do with some sort of location service interacting with the play store, not sure what it is but it kept my phone awake 100% of a 90 minute test. | ||

Citing overwhelming demand, Google on Thursday said it has ended a Netflix promotion tied to its new Chromecast TV dongle. The promotion gave users, new and existing, three free months of Netflix's video streaming service, valued at about $24, when they bought Chromecast, a $35 gadget that was announced Wednesday.

Google is considering an entrance into the internet TV game, according to a new report out today. The new over-the-top service would offer live TV broadcasts to customers over their internet connections, bypassing cable operators like Comcast and Time Warner Cable. The Wall Street Journal says the product has been demonstrated to programmers as Google has worked to strike content deals. It's said that TV channels would be available in bundles much like traditional cable packages (rather than à la carte), meaning that popular and less-watched networks would need to be purchased together. Notably, such an arrangement would go directly against the idea of Google TV, which sought to replace traditional cable services by streaming on demand offerings from multiple web sources. It's not clear how far along Google is with its latest plans, nor when it will ever launch such a service. Source | ||

It's not just the computers on Star Trek that Google wants to build for real. The company is also working on a device similar to the show's universal translator — a mythical device on the show that lets everybody speak any language and still be perfectly understood. Hugo Barra, Google's vice president of Android product management, revealed to The Times of London that Google was working on building real-time translation into Android phones. This would mean a person could speak a sentence of phrase into their phone and the person on the other side of the call would hear the words in his native tongue. Source | ||
