Nexus 7 Accessories / Nexus 7 Wi-Fi Antenna Booster
« on: March 30, 2013, 08:07:45 AM »
Where I use my Nexus 7 the wi-fi can be sort of weak.  I know that some people use wi-fi antenna boosters on lap-top computers.  Is there anything like that for the Nexus 7?

I might be getting close to getting one of these.  Is there anything new on this?

Nexus 7 Accessories / ASUS Dock Or Something Else?
« on: March 03, 2013, 09:44:14 AM »
I see that there have been a number of posts regarding docks for the Nexus 7.  I am ready to buy one.  Should I go for the genuine ASUS dock or is one of the other ones a better choice at this point?  I want one that holds it in the "landscape" orientation, not portrait.  Do I need one with speakers?  I have read criticisms of the audio on the Nexus 7, so if need a dock with speakers, that would be good to know.

Nexus 7 Apps / Garmin’s Android Strategy
« on: February 20, 2013, 05:07:10 PM »

For those that have been hoping for Garmin on an Android, we might be in luck next week!

When Garmin and Asus ended their ill-fated nuvifone partnership, Garmin gave Asus an exclusive for any preloaded navigation apps through the end of 2012. Because of this, quite a few Garmin watchers expect an announcement of a Garmin navigation app for Android early this year. But that may not happen.
A tough market and another option

The market for Android navigation apps is challenging; the developers must compete with the free and always improving Google Maps Navigation app that comes preloaded on Android handsets. Not that is isn’t without significant flaws, but at free, it’s good enough for most folks. The TomTom USA app has sold less than 1,000 units to date. Garmin has had more luck down under, with over 100,000 installs. Even so, when I saw this morning that Garmin had swung a deal with Samsung for preloading their Navgon app on the Galaxy Note 2, it made me wonder if Garmin wouldn’t be better off striking such deals with manufacturers. This would be a good differentiator for companies in the hyper-competitive mobile market.
We should know soon

Regardless, the picture should be clearer by the end of February, as I’m expecting an announcement one way or the other at Mobile World Congress. Which way do you think they will go – an app you can buy or a deal with a manufacturer?

Nexus 7 Accessories / The Dock Is Here

Does the Philips Fidelio place it in portrait or landscape orientation?  Can you post a URL for this?  Also, what is the price for this?

I received this email today.  I do, however, have the Google Nexus 7 32GB 3G + AT&T SIM.  Does anybody know why this case would not be compatible with that version?   


Is your New Year's resolution to protect your tech this year?
The Defender Series case is precisely designed for ultimate form, fit and function while providing practically indestructible protection for your Google Nexus 7. Stay protected in 2013 with the new Google Nexus 7 Defender Series from OtterBox.

Compatability:
Google Nexus 7 16GB Wi-Fi only
Google Nexus 7 32GB Wi-Fi only
Not Compatible with the Google Nexus 7 32GB 3G +AT&T SIM

So, until the OtterBox is available, is the Gumdrop is currently the most rugged case available?

You are welcome.  Please post here how well you like it.  I actually have an OEM Nexus case, but I think I want one that works as a stand, so I may just spring for this myself!  That is, unless I can find something else that I like better.  I think I would like an OtterBox, but I don't think that they make one for the Nexus 7 yet.  It looks like Poetic has several to choose from on their webpage.

I am somewhat tempted by the Poetic Keybook

It does say that it is coming soon!

Nexus 7 Ordering and Shipping / Nexus 7 32GB With Mobile Data
« on: November 25, 2012, 03:00:20 PM »
I am considering getting the Nexus 7 32GB With Mobile Data.  Is that going to be in any brick and mortar stores or is that going to be an on-line order?
