The live streaming page for today's keynote is titled Android at Google I/O 2012 Day 1, so I guess we now know which keynote will be about what?

 

[Bollocks]

Come on Eric drop the bomb!

 

[jokkir]

Quick access to various settings via the notification menu, like in CM9:

Does CM9 allow hiding of the notification toggles? If not, I prefer AOKP in that regard

I think that's just the url for the Android sessions through out the day.

 

[RoadHazard]

I think that's just the url for the Android sessions through out the day.

Oh. But the time it's counting down to matches the time of the first keynote...?

EDIT: Ok, just saw the link for tomorrow also has "Android" in the title. So I guess that means nothing.

 

[Vyse The Legend]

Today's keynote better be about Android.

No ChromeOS/other Google products, please.

 

[gcubed]

Looks like some Google home / media streaming devices may be shown and released as well

how many times can you release the same product?

Hope they'll be showing off some of the results from their google tv hackathon they had about a month ago.

Nexus 7 and Nexus Q fuuuuu

You understand that the Nexus Q currently supports only Google Play Music; Google Play Movies and TV; and YouTube, and that your use of those services is subject to the Google Play Terms of Service.

http://www.droid-life.com/2012/06/27/tv-shows-headed-to-google-play-store-today/

In order to use the Nexus Q, you understand that you will need your own: (i) phone or tablet running Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) or higher with access to Google Play; (ii) compatible speakers, AV system or HD TV; and (iii) 802.11a/b/g/n access point Wi-Fi router.

Looks like a slingbox type device, awesome. This is probalby what they were testing a few months ago with an FCC temp license.

Dat Bezel. Homescreen looks meh. =/

Nice.

Spoiler

I kid, I kid.

I have no interest in the Nexus 7. But, the Nexus Q... intriguing.

Also, it has an ethernet port, so I assume it might be a Google TV device.

 

[Talon]

Enough until it sticks. Which is apparently never.

 

[jokkir]

Look, guys

Nooo, im slow lol

 

[brotkasten]

Dat Bezel. Homescreen looks meh. =/

Apple gets it and even Google gets it. Landscape tablets are shit. Fucking Microsoft.

Oh, and this is just a big iPod TouchGalaxy Nexus w/o phone capabilities.

 

[D4Danger]

It that's $199 and it doesn't run like shit I think Google could be onto a winner

 

[Pctx]

So the Nexus 8?

Spoiler

based on the David 8?

 

[zbeeb]

why does it have a phone interface and not tab?

 

[SimleuqiR]

Apple gets it and even Google gets it. Landscape tablets are shit. Fucking Microsoft.

Oh, and this is just a big iPod TouchGalaxy Nexus w/o phone capabilities.

That's the joke...I mean, the point.

 

[The Albatross]

That's the worst looking tablet hardware layout we've seen in a while. I ... don't get why Google produces shit like this if that's going to be the actual design.

 

[Achtius]

the bezel looks so ..thick/big

 

[def sim]

it's kinda ugly huh

 

[Pctx]

the bezel looks so ..thick/big

<ques> It's just a big iPhone jokes </ques>

 

[Zeppu]

Hmm, centered soft buttons and time/notifications on top?

Also, jesus the search bar looks hideous.

 

[brotkasten]

Only the back looks ugly, which is an improvement.

the bezel looks so ..thick/big

A tablet needs a thick bezel.

 

[kehs]

It's probably a better setup for when you go into landscape, less wasted vertical space. Still looks ugs though. =/

 

[zbeeb]

how many of you have seen a 7" tablet before? They ALL have a huge bezel, that shouldn't have been a surprise.

Nexus Q: The return of project tungsten/android@home?

doubt edit: its a streaming media player! source

 

[jokkir]

What's that Nexus Q thing?

Better pic here:

[brotkasten]

Come on, guys. It's not that ugly for a Nexus device.

I might even get it as a replacement for my lost iPad 3. Should be good enough until the iPad 4 comes out.

 

[Zombie James]

Look, guys

Nooo, im slow lol

If this is $199, I want a 10" for <= $299.

Balls, everywhere!

This is going to be a way to stream movies from your Nexus/Phone/Tablet through Google Play, and on to your TV.

 

[clav]

Google wants that living room space.

Probably will be some partnership announced with OnLive or another Roku box.

 

[kehs]

They should have gotten the Q guys to design the tablet.

Way to fuck over vizio and other google tv supported google. jeez.

 

[brotkasten]

http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/06/27/nexus-q-images-uncovered-its-a-streaming-media-player/

It looks beautiful/terrifying. It gives me a HAL9000 vibe.

I want it.

Yeah, sounds like Apple TV by Google.

Google TV would be a great name for it.

 

[Divvy]

This is some sci-fi looking stuff right here:

 

[SimleuqiR]

Looks like Q is an in house design, while the tablet comes from ASUS.
Shit! I hope the next Nexus phone is made in house. Enough with the OEM crap.

 

[Pctx]

That's amazing actually and it works so well with the shape and form factor.

 

[JonnyBrad]

I'm guessing all this new media stuff will be US only as per usual with google. :/

 

[Divvy]

I almost want one because the hardware is so great looking.

 

[RoadHazard]

This is some sci-fi looking stuff right here:

Holy shit at all those cables. What's going on? Power + HDMI + Ethernet (if it's not wireless)... that's three. Don't know what the rest are for.

Of course it will. As a non-US Google user you're forever doomed to only look longingly at all the things you don't get.

Who knows.

It almost looks like it's done for aesthetic reasons. To me it almost looks like a wirey hand reaching into the ball.

Maybe it's really just a fancy looking bowling ball?

Nexus Q video

http://youtu.be/7F5FO-MyR0o

 

[The Albatross]

People defending the look of the Nexus tablet from the early rumor shots are seriously deluding themselves. The bezel, the fact that it looks to be running the phone version of ICS, the ugly stupid search bar covering the whole thing... THE BEZEL.

If that shot is what it looks like, then it's stupid and it won't succeed and it'll be an after thought. If it's successful I will personally record an internet video of me eating something nasty, like soggy leaves.

 

[Zombie James]

http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/06/27/nexus-q-images-uncovered-its-a-streaming-media-player/

My style preferences usually go towards hard edges and stuff like that, but I think this is a great design.

 

[zbeeb]

Video confirms Play Music is getting a minor facelift and Nexus 7 is using a phone layout

Play Music getting a split tablet layout?

Also they're FINALLY making music what is should have been in the first place, a social music service. Hopefully the new social stuff extends beyond @home.

ICS doesn't have a phone version, it's all the same thing.

Not to interested in the q after the video, give me a google tv over that.
