Nexus 7 Help / How to Move a Widget?
« on: July 23, 2012, 04:40:49 PM »
I like this 4.1.1 system but sometimes it's a little harder than the older versions I think.  I have my HD time/weather widget on the most left-hand home screen but how can I move it to the main (center) screen?  Seems like I used to be able to just long press it and move it, or press anywhere on the blank screen and a menu would come up and it listed Widgets.  But when I do that with my N7 only Gallery or Wallpapers appears. 
Sorry for such an elementary question, but it's buggin' me big time...

Site News / Cool Site Feature

I see you can delete your own posts in this forum.  That's a really cool feature that some other forums, like PriusChat, don't have.  Very handy for some of us with quicker fingers than brains... thanks!

Nexus 7 General Discussion / Any Regrets 8Ger's??
« on: July 22, 2012, 01:11:57 PM »
Well I see my 8 Gigs are filling up rapidly... Maybe I should've cut loose with the extra 50 bucks for the 16G.  Any regrets, or plans to 'upgrade' your 8G?

Nexus 7 General Discussion / Do We Have a Problem Here??
« on: July 22, 2012, 09:14:33 AM »
Hmmm, I just ran across this article: http://venturebeat.com/2012/07/20/is-your-nexus-7-having-touchscreen-issues/ 

Anyone seeing this on their N7?

Nexus 7 Help / Voice Output??
« on: July 21, 2012, 03:10:01 PM »
I love how I can give voice commands and have them carried out on my N7.  But I thought I saw somewhere, where the tablet answers back in audio, not just by listing links.  I have the volume up and it makes all the other sounds, but no voice; what am I doing wrong? Maybe just not asking the the question correctly?  In fact I think I even saw someone do a verbal translation, like "say hello in Spanish", and the tab answered in Spanish, or am I just dreaming here?  Thanks for any replies,

I'm diggin' my N7 for sure!  But sometimes, when the volume spikes and I reach for the volume rocker I hit the pwr button instead.  I hope on the next iteration of the N7 that they'll move one of the buttons to a different location so that there is no mistaking one for the other.  Maybe the pwr button on the top?

What's on your wish list??

Nexus 7 Apps / Decent Spell Check?
« on: July 18, 2012, 08:55:28 AM »
Sure wish there was a cool spell check like the one I've got on my PC (Spell Check Anywhere).  In ANY APPLICATION all I have to do is press F11 and a spell check pops up and checks every thing I've written and makes suggestions for the proper spelling.  Plus, if I just highlight one word and hit F11 it will check it in the dictionary AND thesaurus.  So handy for a poor speller like me ~ I had to use it here to get past 'thesaurus'!  Doesn't seem like there's anything all that great in PS...  :(

The Lounge: Off Topic Forum / How Many Tablet Owners Use a Stylus?
« on: July 12, 2012, 04:44:53 PM »
This will be my first tab so I'm just wondering how many of you that already own tablets use a Stylus.   It seems like a helpful kind of accessory but I guess a finger will work almost as well.  Would this just be some sort of rubber tipped stick that makes pointing a little more accurate?  I posted that there is a case that comes with a Stylus but I suppose you can just buy a stylus separately.  Just wondering if that's an item I should pick up.

Nexus 7 General Discussion / Why 7 ??
« on: July 11, 2012, 07:57:20 AM »
Was wondering what the significance of 7 is,  in the naming of our newest object of fascination.  I mean why not Nexus 1, for Google's first tab? How 'bout Nexus 3 for the Tegra 3 chip?  Nexus 4 with it's quad core?  Or a random Nexus 6 or 8 or since it was born this year, what about Nexus 12?  What am I missing here about 7?

Nexus 7 General Discussion / Bloatware?
« on: July 07, 2012, 09:26:34 AM »
I've had a few Android phones but this will be my first tab.  I wonder how much software will be pre-loaded on the N7 that is not meant to remove.  I guess that anything can be removed if the tablet is rooted (?)  But all of my phones eventually seemed to slow way down the longer I owned them.  I'm sure that was mostly my fault from loading them up with various software but I'm hoping I can keep from doing that with the Nexus 7.  I don't think it matters whether I got the 8 or 16, either way one could easily blog it down with too many programs, correct?

Nexus 7 General Discussion / How Important is the 16GB?
« on: June 28, 2012, 08:28:50 PM »
I've got the 8GB version coming but I wonder if I should have gone for the 16GB... My thinking was thus: I don't plan on storing a lot of movies or space-hogging content on board, just mostly surfing, listening to music, etc. so I'm hoping that I won't need all that much mem.  This will be my first tablet so I don't really know how I'll be using it on a daily basis.  If money were no object then maybe I would have gone for Galaxy or one of the high-end, expensive models.  But price did enter into my decision to go with the Nexus.  Am I just fooling myself?
