myType started running its Kickstarter campaign for its revolutionary Pocketable Bluetooth Keyboard on July 27, and within 2 days it has achieved $91,159, which is an impressive $81,159 more than its pledge.
If you’re one of a small number of people lucky enough to get your hands on a second-generation Nexus 7 prior to its official launch date of July 31, and you are planning on using Google Wallet with the NFC receiver, you may be stunned to find out that the payment system is not compatible with Google’s latest flagship tablet.
An overview of the Nexus 7 second-generation disassembled.
Google’s latest flagship tablet, the Nexus 7 2nd generation, is the latest victim to receive the teardown treatment. It doesn’t take much to strip the device, in fact, all that is needed is a Phillips #0 screwdriver, a set of plastic opening tools, and a spudger. Once you peel off the casing you’re presented with a collection of the latest hardware which powers the Nexus 7… Here’s a detailed insight of all the components that are packed inside.
The best argument for funding the space program is: “Because space, that’s why!!”
But for many this argument is pointless. They would prefer the money be spent to help people on Earth. And for those folks, the best argument is: “Space missions always invent numerous technologies that make life better for everybody.” NASA even maintains an online database/magazine called Spinoff to keep track of these technologies, which average about 50 per year.
A similar phenomenon is likely to happen with Google Glass, which is not only a wearable computing hardware device, but also a development platform.
I’m predicting that Google’s massively well funded moonshot, the beta product formerly known as the Google Glass Project, will bring to Android phone and tablet users incredible technologies, ideas, apps and content originally developed for Glass.
Remote was among the first apps that was released on the App Store by Apple. The app allows iPhone and iPad users to control media playback on iTunes on their Mac or Windows based PC without any hackery or complex procedures. While many Android apps on the Play Store offer similar functionality, they need an application to be installed on your PC.
In comes Retune from SquallyDoc studios that works just like Remote from Apple for Android devices, and is free as well.
