Fly Or Die: Google Nexus 7

Fly Or Die: Google Nexus 7

Ever since I/O and the unveiling of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, the blogosphere has been measuring Google’s new Nexus 7 tablet. The verdict in almost every case is good, including our very own iPad lover’s take.

John and I thus found it only fitting to bring the little 7-inch tablet into the studio for Fly or Die. The tablet, with a 7-inch IPS 1280×800 display, a Tegra 3 quad-core processor, and the latest version of Android, didn’t fail to impress.


And the specs have very little to do with it. Sure, that Tegra 3 proc probably contributes quite a bit to the snappiness of the tablet, but the display isn’t anything to write home about, nor is the measly 8GB of on board storage. (I know there’s a 16Gb model, but without external memory you’ll be walking around with a rather "light" amount of content.)

What makes the tablet great is that it’s the first truly premium tablet available in this size and price range. Amazon’s Kindle Fire is great but it isn't really a computer replacement the way the iPad is, but rather a mobile Amazon content portal. And the iPad, though exceptional in performance and usability, is a little large and way too expensive to fit into the category.

The Nexus 7 fills that gap, and so we believe it’ll fly and fly into many a home. It’s already sold out once.

The real question is whether or not it’ll still have such high demand once Apple unveils that long-awaited iPad mini. September will be here before you know it.

Google Adds 'Handwrite' Search For Mobiles and Tablets

Google Adds 'Handwrite' Search For Mobiles and Tablets
Google has officially introduced 'Handwrite' a new way to search in mobile and tablet with a touch-screen. The new feature enables you to write your search term with your finger instead of typing it into the search field.

The best part is that you can type anywhere on the screen without having to strain your eyes on a keyboard eating away half your screen.

For Handwrite to work, you're required to enable the feature by going to Google.com on your mobile or tablet. Tap 'Settings' at the bottom of the screen and enable Handwrite. You might want to refresh the page for the new settings to take effect.

Once enabled, you'll see a bar at the bottom displaying 4 icons. Tapping the 'g' button will allow you to type in your own handwriting. There's also a space bar button and a delete button. Once you start typing, Google reveals the autocomplete searches indicated by an arrows next to them.

Handwrite is currently available in 27 different languages, and also Google shared a promotional video that previews this new functionality.

Google In Trouble Over Streetview Information

Google Streetview Information

Google is in trouble over information it collected from people's computers whilst getting pictures for Google Street View.

Google Street View allows you to zoom to a point on a map and get a view similar to one you'd see if you were stood there yourself.

In order to do this Google sent out cars to record images in lots of places around the world.

But they didn't just record photographs.

In May 2012 it was revealed they also recorded information from some UK homes that had wi-fi that wasn't protected by a password.

This information is private and there are rules in this country to make sure it this personal information doesn't get into the wrong hands.

And by scooping up the information Google were breaching those rules.

The UK's Information Commissioner (ICO) told Google to delete all the information, and Google in December 2010 the said they had done this.

But now it has been revealed they still haven't deleted people's information and its still on their computers.

The ICO have responded with by saying, "It is clear that this information should never have been collected in the first place and the company's failure to secure its deletion as promised is cause for concern".

Google Nexus 7 Was Designed To Have A Rear Camera

Google Nexus 7 Was Designed To Have A Rear Camera
The Google Nexus 7 tablet arrives with an extremely affordable $199 price for the basic 8GB model, and one shortcut Google had to take to arrive at that is the rear camera - the 7-inch tablet doesn’t have one, instead it only features a front-facing cameras fit for video calls but little else. 

That shouldn’t be a deal breaker for most of you since shooting pictures with your tablet might not be the best idea, but interestingly it seems that Asus and Google initially planned to include a rear camera. Or at least the whole design is built around that idea. Or Asus just used a previous design. 

In either case, there is an empty spot for where the camera should have been placed with all the connectors, but... no camera. It’s all evident in a detailed unboxing by XDA Devs - the camera part starts at around the 5:30 mark, so check it out below.

This means the user doesn't have to take off the finger from the screen. While this method of typing doesn't suit everyone, those who have adapted to it have found it faster and convenient compared to the traditional method.

Apple Announced a New Next-Gen iPod Touch with a 4 inch Display

Apple New Next-Gen iPod Touch

The next generation iPad Touch might feature a 4 inch display along with a brand new A5 processor and a buffed aluminum back for the classic look.

Apple, the makers of iPhone, is working on a new iPod player which will feature a buffed all aluminum back for that classic look and appeal, according to a website - macotakara.jp. This website said this quoting some internal sources in Apple.

Apple has been quite for a long time now regarding the upgrade to its iPod Touch range of portable media players. Earlier there were rumors that Apple will be giving an iPhone's look to the iPod Touch devices that will be coming in the future. But the recent revelation is contrary to the existing rumors.

"The new iPod Touch (5th generation) will have 4 inch LCD which is the same size with coming iPhone 5. CPU or other spec is considered to be same with iPhone 4S, and has different back-case design, which will be not mirror polished but buffed aluminum one. And it seems to be prepared black and white colour model," the website quoted the sources as saying.

"This iPod Touch has an additional hole on lower part of back case other than the camera, although there is no idea about this hole for what purpose," told the so called "Asian" sources to the website.
If everything goes by what the source tells them we will soon see the launch of the next generation for iPod Touch media player that too with a bigger 4 inch display along with a faster dual core A5 processor as well. But as of now nothing concrete can be said as Apple is yet to comment on the same.
