Looks good, but does this mean they'll only be selling 3 products; Nexus 7, Galaxy Nexus and Nexus Q? Maybe 4 of they include the older Nexus S.

That's actually quite a good idea. Just concentrate on giving the most display time to the core products, imho.

Would be nice if they offered accessories as well, like docks, cases, sleeves....etc
Also, I pray they don't ruin their display with all those poser Beats headphones all the fake-audiophiles like wearing.

Not sure which floor. I don't really remember which 'floor' for all the buildings in KL except the condo I stay because they tends to have LG B1 B2 B3 bla bla bla. Can't remember...

I suggest you to at least unlock bootloader first. Else next time when you got tonnes of data inside, you'll cry for not unlocking them when you first receive it. laugh.gif

Thanks for the reply on USB OTG. Will go to Lowyat and look for it. Another one is on the Play Store credit. Once I claimed it, can I use it to buy in app purchase? Also, can I use it to buy apps for my phone or just limited for purchases via Nexus 7?

unsure.gif I don't think you can get it cheaper from lowyat. Maybe cheaper than those shops in shopping mall but shouldn't be cheaper than buying online laugh.gif

Guys

Just wondering if this tab can be used with stylus that has Note 10.1 capabilities. You know..using stylus on the multitasking mode etc. Are there any apps that can make the tab has theses abilities?

I doubt there is a way to make the Note's stylus work on the Nexus 7. If it could then the Note has pretty much lost its entire appeal. Also if I'm not wrong, the S-pen (I think that's what they call it) is proprietary technology and is a hardware thing.
*
S-pen is something patented by Samsung. How can Asus be using it laugh.gif

Anyway... S-pen is not normal Stylus. Even though its 'ballhead' looks just like a plastic but it always make me wonders how the phone detect the touch. Also how the buttons on S-pen interact with the phone. rolleyes.gif Let me dream on this maybe I can understand how it worked laugh.gif

iPmart selling 8GB version 899.
Tempting!!!!!
http://www.ipmart.com.my/main/product/Goog...php?prod=351026

But 16GB for 1199 seems to be too much. Since buying from US, they're just 50USD difference. Maybe it's hotseller.... Supposed it should be just 155~170 higher but they mark it RM300 higher
hmm.gif

Is the display on N7 and 7.7 even comparable? I think you said N7 definitely win in smoothness. And you said N7 display looks pale. hmm.gif

guys.. do you think it is cheaper to buy directly from US and use website like www.vpost.com to ship back to malaysia..
or just buy it from garage sales..
anyone with such experiences?.. smile.gif
*
The problem of buying from US on your own is the postage. Postage alone can cost you RM150~200. Then you need to pay commission to the forwarding service provider. Besides that, when you order from Google Playstore, you get charged 15USD for postage to US Address.
Means... 215 USD for 8GB and 265 for 16GB.
After conversion, it becomes around 870 for 8GB and 1028 for 16GB. You need to bear the risk of posting it from US. No one can guarantee you for the parcel to arrive. Even if covered with insurance, it's still a mess to deal with.
Conclusion is... buy from Garage Sales or website like iPmart. laugh.gif
Those in garage sales can sell cheaper because they send them into Malaysia in batch, postage is cheaper. Then they order from PlayStore more than one units at once. 15USD is then divided by maybe 3 Nexus 7. If you order alone, you pay 15 for ONE Nexus 7.

Actually in short means no matter what I do to the device, it will not have any changes. I can never flash anything nor modify any files in it. As an example, I install an app into it and reboot, the app will automatically gone, while I uninstall an app and reboot, it will come back again. The changes is not only in the app, but even I flash the whole new rom, it didn't actually installed it and came back to the one that I have flashed over it.

lol... this is true.  The Note threads also starts to confuse me - Note, Note II, Note 10.1.  Now need to double check before i click on the thread.  blush.gif

the mod should allow this sub-forum to put a photo as thread header like the garage forum, easier for uncle like me with not so good eyesight to distinguish all the different thread.  rclxub.gif  I think the laptop sub-forum also got that feature.

this or kindle hd??

if buy N7 locally no need worry about warranty hmm.gif

N7 buy from US also can claim warranty locally hmm.gif

Quad core vs Dual core. Your call laugh.gif
You mean Kindle 7 HD or the 8.9"
8.9" 1920*1080 is pretty insane wub.gif
Btw... Kindle software is pretty much locked down. Not as flexible or hackable as Nexus 7. Depends on your usage.

Since it's international warranty, I think doesn't matter much when you buy. Unless Asus gives a price lower than those seller bringing in from other country which is unlikely laugh.gif
