Hey everyone,
I just purchased 5 Nexus 7's and am planning on using them as mini touch screen kiosks for my business. I am interested in sharing and discussing the use of the Nexus 7 as a Kiosk information center for many users to come and access various forms of media.
My business is providing computer timing for running races, and I plan on using the tablets in a results tent for spectators and finishers to view how the runners had placed/finished.
One of things I am looking to setup, is a way to securely attach a security cable to each tablet so that they won't be easily stolen. I haven't quite found the best solution yet, but am interested in anyones opinions on the subject.
I am an active web app developer as well as android/iOS developer, if anyone has any custom apps they want made I may be interested in helping out.

Unfortunately, none of these are an attractive solution.
If you don't mind glue on the back:

Maybe add a cable to the last one? Hope you find a solution.
