Nexus 7 Accessories / Simple charger question
« on: September 01, 2012, 02:32:52 PM »
Just purchased my Nexus 7 3 days ago and so far love it.  Time for another charge and .. one of us has misplaced the charger and cable.

I 'd rather not use up the 14 day return policy waiting for the mail so would rather not order one.   But, I can't locate the charger/cable in metro Atlanta.  And, nowhere can I find the specs.    I know very little about this but do know I must be careful not to try charging it with something that would fry the unit.     If I went to our local BestBuy, etc. does anyone know what I could purchase? 

Also, on the subject of charging; work takes me to Italy soon.  Can I just use my wall outlet adapter plug and the cable and charger that comes with the Nexus 7?
Thanks

Nexus 7 General Discussion / Two very basic questions
« on: August 21, 2012, 10:13:48 AM »
I am not very computer tech savvy so, please allow me a 2 basic question.

I am thinking of getting a Nexus7 mainly  for 2 purposes:  To replace my NookColor which I used as an e-reader  and to have for wifi when I travel.     No games, possibly for watching Netflix and listening to music via Pandora or Spotify.

Question 1:   Looking at the  books available (or in this case, not available) on Google, I will be purchasing most books from Amazon     How easy it is to obtain the books through Amazon?

Question 2: I would also like to use my Kingston USB thumb drives occasionally to view some documents I store on these USB drives.
I've am confused reading the various postings and  specs on Google regarding USB.  Is it possible to use a thumb drive and simple put it into the Nexus 7?     And, if the answer is yes, will I be able to view these (microsoft excel and word documents) since Windows won't be installed in the Nexus7?
If this is not possible, I assume I could get them off my Google Drive cloud storage account.  Would they be available for viewing from the cloud account without again, since Windows won't be installed?

Thanks
