Apple should do this shit too. They have just as much, if not more, money than teh Goog.

 

[kehs]

I totally missed the pricing on glass. $1500 preorder wont ship until 2013?.

Huh, why the cheers?

Didn't they pay a ton to get in there?

They would have paid regardless, so basically it's a free access to sessions.

 

[jokkir]

Hope someone rips that Jelly Bean OTA... :|

Hope so too. But if they don't, good thing it's not coming out too far from now

 

[Cjdamon042]

Damn, the lucky bastards lol

 

[def sim]

They don't have to.

 

[kagete]

That's okay guys, taking a day off from work and buying a plane ticket and hotel stay plus actually getting in to this conference is around a thousand bucks anyway...

 

[ThatObviousUser]

As an engineer, I would like some hypothetical use cases. That's all. All they talked about was video and pictures.

Did you see the concept video?

 

[gutshot]

I totally missed the pricing on glass. $1500 preorder wont ship until 2013?

Yes. Pre-alpha hardware for developers only.

 

[massoluk]

Man the bribing is getting more and more ridiculous. Who started this?

 

[CrunchinJelly]

That's okay guys, taking a day off from work and buying a plane ticket and hotel stay plus actually getting in to this conference is around a thousand bucks anyway...

Tickets were $900

heh makes sense ^^

not so jelly now I guess thx

 

[Interfectum]

amazing bribe at the end... lol

 

[AgentChris]

Apple doesn't need to do this.

 

[3phemeral]

Q, 7, and GNex for 6000 people?

 

[Atenhaus]

Hope someone rips that Jelly Bean OTA... :|

It'll be on XDA within 24 hours.

 

[Divvy]

So... what's next.

 

[zbeeb]

Other than Q, they really nailed everything else. Brought in some awesome refinements for android, new features and nexus 7 looks decent AND available outside US!

Stoked! Can't wait for jellybean!

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Apple doesn't need to do this.

Exactly. Everyone buys their shit anyway.

 

[MThanded]

So I missed the Q announcement earlier. What makes it worth 299?

I see its socially focused but I don't see why it is priced like that.

 

[JoeFu]

Is there a jellybean video? I'm sitting in class and missed everything. I got to see the glasses stuff though.

 

[Nakazato]

i missed to whole thing can someone sum up the announcements for me ?

 

[ThatObviousUser]

So I missed the Q announcement earlier. What makes it worth 299?

Nothing.

Well, it kinda looks nice.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Google always gives away hardware at these events.

 

[reKon]

So I missed the Q announcement earlier. What makes it worth 299?

I see its socially focused but I don't see why it is priced like that.

Made in the US.

 

[Blackhead]

So I missed the Q announcement earlier. What makes it worth 299?

Nothing. It's like the 1st gen AppleTV

 

[Majine]

So I missed the Q announcement earlier. What makes it worth 299?

I watched it and you tell me.

 

[Hoo-doo]

So I missed the Q announcement earlier. What makes it worth 299?

Nothing. That thing will flop harder than the Kin did.

 

[dabig2]

Damn, I really want to develop for those glasses. I'll cook up a decent, usable HUD for them. Hire me Google!

 

[Al-ibn Kermit]

So I missed the Q announcement earlier. What makes it worth 299?

I see its socially focused but I don't see why it is priced like that.

Made in America?

[Dark_AnNiaLatOr]

Awesome, you can now skip in a youtube video in portrait mode in the new youtube app! I've always thought they needed that.

 

[MThanded]

Nothing. It's like the 1st gen AppleTV

But you can build a decent multimedia box for much cheaper and still make profit. What a weird pricing. You can get a ps3 for less than that.


Edit: aH I see made in the USA.

 

[Mrcapcom]

(Im)Patiently waits for Jelly Bean Update for my Galaxy Nexus to be release to the intertubes

 

[rabhw]

That was probably the best keynote Google has ever delivered, imo.

Some hiccups but it was a good mix of fun, professional, and uncomfortable scripted sequences.

Nexus Q seems kinda...strange. The G+ stuff was actually really impressive, now if only people I know used it!

Jelly Bean looks incredible.

 

[kagete]

Tickets were $900

Whew thanks for making me feel better then! Assuming you had leftover miles/points to buy a flight+ticket, I guess this makes it pretty much even. Man I wish my job would allow me to go to fetes like this. I'm sure we've all been to a conference at least once that cost our company like $3000 for 2 days and all we get are 2 bad convention center lunches and a paper certificate that was worth practically nothing.

 

[dream]

You guys weren't kidding. The new YouTube app is pretty dope.

 

[Divvy]

New Maps update is up.

 

[saltywalrus]

Conference was kind of lame. Nexus Q and Glass are expensive stuff no one will use. G+ is not bad but they spent way too much time on it.

Why no new phones, 10 inch tablets, productivity apps, Google TV.

Hopefully Jelly Bean fixes the audio latency issue so we can get some decent audio creation apps.

 

[Sean]

One thing I might have missed regarding Google Glasses, if everything is positioned above your eye, how are you gonna see the HUD stuff?

Wouldn't there need to be some kind of lens in front of your eye to project/display that augmented reality HUD stuff on?

 

[Toki767]

Is there going to be a video of the keynote somewhere? I missed it.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

i missed to whole thing can someone sum up the announcements for me ?

Will be in the OP shortly. Basically:

- 400 million Android devices, 1 million being activated daily
- Android Jelly Bean is 4.1
- Project Butter: Android is mostly locked at 60fps, triple buffering, smoother animations
- Automatic widget resizing and homescreen reflowing
- Notifications got suped up, two finger gesture to "expand" them and access more info/controls
- Offline voice typing
- Google Now is like Google's Siri, location and time-based search, access info in "cards," voice is a lot nicer/more human than Siri's
- Chrome for Android is now stable and the default browser
- Jelly Bean hitting Xoom, Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus, and AOSP in mid-July
- Google Play now has TV shows and magazines
- Nexus 7 tablet by Asus, $199, 7" inch 1280x800 screen, 8 GB storage, Tegra 3
- Nexus Q, $299, Sonos-like social media ball thing
- 250 million Google+ users, 150 million active, 75 million use it everyday, users spend 12 minutes in stream
- Livestreamed jumping out of a plane and other stuff using Google Glass
- $1500 preorder for pre-alpha Glass hardware, shipping early 2013, only for US I/O attendees
- Attendees get a Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7, and Nexus Q for free

Is there going to be a video of the keynote somewhere? I missed it.

GoogleDevelopers YouTube account, probably later tonight or tomorrow.

 

[Paznos]

Netflix app updated for Jellybean.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

So no Chrome for older Androids?

 

[brotkasten]

I wonder how long it will take Sony to update the Xperia S.

The GNexus is still an option, but I'm not a fan of the bland and boring design.

 

[RoadHazard]

Other than Q, they really nailed everything else. Brought in some awesome refinements for android, new features and nexus 7 looks decent AND available outside US!

Stoked! Can't wait for jellybean!

3 countries outside the US (Canada, UK and Australia, right?). The rest of the world gets shafted as usual. And not a single word about making Music + Movies/TV + Books/Magazines available anywhere new, which makes almost the entire keynote entirely pointless for non-US people. The only thing they presented that is of any value to me is Jelly Bean (some of the most cool features of which will of course not work in my native language). So, no, I don't think they "nailed it".

 

[Darkkn]

Google keynotes are great, because the people seem real and nice. Not too polished. Fits the company image well imo.

 

[LyleLanley]

Made in America?

http://www.theverge.com/2012/6/27/3121118/nexus-q-tear-down-manufactured-us

That's pretty cool that it's made in America, but I wonder if people are going to care where it's made given that price.

Also pdk for future android versions provided up to 3 months early for manufacturers so updates can be pushed out sooner

[3phemeral]

Maps now updated with offline mode.

How do i get the new youtube app?!

Just check your updates.

 

[HallucinatingElvis]

Now I'm even more pissed I busted my android phone last week.:-(

I don't know if it's because I'm just easily impressed by exciting tech but, im sort of bummed I started to move away from the google camp.
