[Empyrean Heaven]

Haha true with this conference. Enough with untucked wrinkled polo shirt and blue jean, jeeze.

Even though I'm beginning to loathe E3, at least everyone wears a shirt and tie.

 

[gamma]

I still dont know what the Q is

 

[jobber]

Who goes to other people's houses with tablets?

 

[kehs]

Too much time on this shit. Move on.

 

[Sean]

This device looks worthless.

Can't believe they saved this as their big closer(?) of the keynote.

 

[S1kkZ]

are there more infos about the tablet? cant watch the stream and need more infos (all i know is the price...).

 

[Paznos]

whos going to have one?

Good point lol.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

whos going to have one?

lol fa realz. This needs to end. IT WONT GO ANYWHERE.

 

[The Friendly Monster]

Who the fuck is this for?

 

[Blimblim]

All I want is for this thing to be able to notify me via the led when I get emails, and if it's a good price, I'm sold.

 

[clav]

Too much time on this shit. Move on.

Google's Microsoft moment.

 

[D4Danger]

This conference was going so well. Nice slides, 60fps, $200 tablets

then this happened

 

[Majine]

I uhh I don't know what the sphere actually do that makes it that essential.

 

[rezuth]

Oh god, so they want people to have fights over this also...

 

[3phemeral]

Pretty cool. Screw your playlist, play this!

 

[Divvy]

So it's a cloud stereo/video player?

I guess...

Don't know how many people will buy this at 299.

 

[VanWinkle]

lol, this thing does seem just a little odd. I don't know how much of an audience they have for this.

 

[jokkir]

Oh, Nexus Q = Queue

lel

 

[Marty Chinn]

This is ... worthless... MORE THAN ONE NEXUS Q? hahaha

What's funny? I've got 4 Logitech Squeezeboxes in my house.

 

[JonnyBrad]

Just bought the 8GB Tablet!

I wish i could, they announced it for the UK but its not on the play store!

 

[T.M. MacReady]

Too much time on this shit. Move on.

Its a jukebox then? Please tell me this does something else

 

[Windu]

This device looks worthless.

Can't believe they saved this as their big closer(?) of the keynote.

i think they have something covered up on the table to the right (stage left).

 

[DataStream]

Sounds like a great way to cause drunken fist fights at parties

 

[pxleyes]

This is basically the next gen iPod Hi-Fi. Doomed to fail at $300.

Fantastic comparison. I forgot about that failure.

 

[lunarworks]

App encryption is a huge deal for those interested in the gaming prospects of the platform. Oh, and delta updates too (Apple needs to get on that shit).


So yeah, this is the most impressive Android iteration by far. Less than new features, Google absolutely needed to iron out what they already had. The best phone OS just got MUCH better.

Also...triple buffered transitions and synchronized system events in the GUI make me soooooo glad in the right places.

But how's the disgusting audio delay? Have they fixed that yet?

Recently we were all playing with GarageBand on an iPad at the store, and everyone wanted it. I came home, downloaded a piano app for my CM9 TouchPad, and everyone walked away from it after a few minutes. Why? There was like a half second sound delay on keypress. I downloaded more musical instrument apps, and they were all like that. It's a massive flaw with Android, apparently.

 

[clav]

Fake people.

Almost like they're making fun of the product.

 

[bananas]

This forced dialogue is so UGH.

 

[gamma]

Fake conversation is fake

 

[Yoshiya]

This is more condescending to the average person's wallet than the $2000 iOS Scrabble game of 2010.

 

[JBuccCP]

Finally, I can listen to music with my friends. Thank you, Google.

Oh god fucking Transformers?

 

[zbeeb]

terrible acting

 

[Shambles]

Anyone with decent speakers have a decent receiver with an amp that's going to be better than what's in the Q anyways.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Bad Acting™

 

[Blackhead]

Be right back. Going to buy Transformers (for the first time)
Ugh

 

[Achtius]

whats's with the giant bright bar at the bottom

 

[Kosmo]

"I always liked Bumblebee."

Whoever said that just lost all credibility.

 

[D4Danger]

why would you go to your friends house with your tablet to finish watching a movie?

nothing about this makes sense

 

[VanWinkle]

This is a little embarassing. I hope they don't announce the price on stage because that will be awkward, lol.

 

[Raistlin]

I think XBMC still wins over this.

they really aren't the same product though

 

[Cereal KiIIer]

That guys got one ugly haircut.

 

[kehs]

Why are you murdering Google TV, Google?

 

[def sim]

No one does these things.

 

[Yoshiya]

This is basically the next gen iPod Hi-Fi. Doomed to fail at $300.

Perfect comparison.

 

[jobber]

The battery life on that tablet looks shitty

 

[LyleLanley]

I feel like they could've saved a ton of time just by saying "it's a shittier version of Apple TV".

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

I'm curious as to whether google is genuinely so clueless as to think think will be anything near remotely successful. They are dedicating a lot of time to it, which makes me think they don't realize it won't be.

:/

 

[clav]

Please make it stop.

 

[bananas]

"There's this cool video of..."

SHOW AD FOR YOUR PRODUCT

 

[kehs]

No one does these things.

Meh, I send stuff to my google tv all the time from my phone. Which confuses me why this isn't google tv based.

 

[reKon]

At least this isn't wonderbook bad
