Google is expected to start shipping the second iteration of its Nexus 7 tablet this fall, according to DigiTimes. Supply chain sources have indicated that the device will feature a 7-inch display and start going into production this summer. Factories overseas are expected to make about 8 million of the next-gen tablets for 2013.

The future of the Nexus 7 wasn’t addressed by Google at its I/O conference earlier this month, but the company is rumored to announce a white Nexus 4 phone and Android 4.3 Jelly Bean at a June 10th event. That would make for a good time to unveil a new Nexus tablet as well.

Appigo’s Todo Pro task management app is now available to download from Google Play. It’s a public beta release that allows users to try out the service ahead of its official release. All of the features you’d expect from a good task management client are there, including cross-platform sync, multiple alarms, repeating tasks, and support for projects.

The app also boasts some other features that aren’t so common, including location-based reminders, a customizable app badge widget, and a task list widget.
