Search results for: Google I/O

I was a bit skeptical when the Nexus Q sold out in less than 24 hours, and rightfully so it would appear. Today, Google began sending out emails to Nexus Q customers (a short list btw) who had pre-ordered the device to inform them that they were postponing the consumer launch to work on making it even better. In other words, “we realized no one wants a $300 doorstop.”

This year’s Google I/O was the year of the Nexus, and right before I set off on my vacation, Google announced the Nexus 7. If you haven’t heard about it yet, here’s a few links to get you started:

Every year, soulless leaches attend I/O for one reason and one reason only: the free devices. Then these douches proceed to rape overzealous tech enthusiasts who couldn’t make it to I/O. This year is no different, and if you do a quick search for Google I/O over on Ebay, you’ll see the douchery is in full force.

We’re only moments away from Day 1 of Google Google I/O 2012 but that doesn’t mean the leaks have to stop. The Verge managed to snatch a look at a Google Nexux 7 banner to be displayed on the Google Play Store and boy is it, well… you can be the judge. All I can say is holy bezel Batman! I’ve talked with a few people who don’t see an issue, but personally, I’m a bit disappointed.

It’s safe to say that Jelly Bean is now officially out of the bag, and we have the official Google Play Store to thank. Earlier in the day, the Samsung Galaxy Nexus listing included a description that outed Android 4.1 and also revealed that the Samsung Galaxy Nexus would be the first phone to get the tasty treat.
