Looking hard at the Nexus 10 how is the Android market vs apples market? apple does not have that many highend games... does the Android market have them?

Team viewer is great for remote control but that's all.in this case you would be better off getting a wireless mouse. but if your talking about media sharing vlc direct pro is the way to go. Its very easy to setup and free. With it you can watch movies or listen to music stored on the PC or nexus 7 on either the nexus 7 or the PC its great. For example I have 500+ movies stored on my PC and my TV setup as one of my monitors with this app I can start a movie or music on the TV and sound system connected to the PC all from my nexus 7 then if for any reason I want to leave the room the same app can stream all that media to my nexus 7.you want to start cooking down stairs take the movie with you on your nexus 7.

Try Monoprice. You might end up paying $3 or 4 after shipping, but you could also find some other stuff on Monoprice you might need. ~$1.50 for a 5 ft Cat6 ethernet cable, etc.

Try Splashtop or Splashtop HD. I've heard really decent things about it.

QQ Tech USB-OTG. Like pez said, you'll pay about 4 bucks but, it'll get there faster. Solid cable. My review.

Hey guys , not sure if any of you have had experience trying to do this or not , but I'm sure someone can help. I'm trying to get my N7 on the internet while at work but we're all hard wired in, no WiFi . After searching for ever I've come to the conclusion that the only way I can reverse tether from my comp to the tablet through USB is if I modify the kernel in the tab and other various things, I don't want to do this right now but I want internet, lol . Im trying to find ways around doing this and so I come to you all to try and confirm my ideas and ask for more.

Could I use a USB dongle in my computer to connect to Wifi through my Tab and bluetooth? I've found a few guides online but I want to make sure it'll work before I go and buy one ( i'll probably just do this anyway if no one answers in the next few hours)

And before anyone says it, I'd love to just hotspot from my phone to my tablet like I'm doing now but I don't have unlimited data.

If you have a wireless card on the computer just use it as a wireless hotspot and connect your N7 to it.

I'm enjoying my Nexus 7 quite a bit so far. On its first full charge and heavy use today I went 10.5 hours without charging and still had about 21% battery life left. I was attached to it for most of the day today tongue.gif Performance is spot on, I haven't had an issue finding apps, and I'm going to give Splashtop Gamepad THD a go smile.gif To be honest, I kind of wish it came in a higher-resolution 8.9" form factor, as that would improve its productivity functionality, but I'm quite glad that I did not go for a 10" model. I'm also happy I opted for a Nexus model, as I like it pure. (I'm accustomed to Touch Wiz)

The most notable "con" I've noticed so far is that colors are not very vibrant Cranking the brightness helps, but it's still noticeable for me. The image is very crisp, though, so I'm happy. For $200 I'm very satisfied with the Nexus 7 package.

I'm trying a "minimalistic" approach to start... we'll see how long that lasts tongue.gif (I have my most commonly-used apps loaded up into the bottom taskbar).

I'm on the hunt for better-looking weather and clock widgets, at the moment. I also wish there was a sleeker settings widget. Any widget recommendations would be appreciated wink.gif



Oh, and I got one of these to give it a try http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-HardBack-Protective-Google-Android/dp/B008IEGS9W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1352338572&sr=8-1&keywords=nexus+7+case+poetic I figured I'd give it a chance for $5. It looks decent, seems to work well, the only complain I have is that it has a strong leather smell. I'm airing it out now tongue.gif

Try the ASUS weather widget. It's what I use. But, you'll have to side load it using the cable that came with your N7. You are in the US so, this one is set for F degrees.

Resizing crops the bottom as you can see but, I like it. I just leave it full size now.

Here it is if you'd like to try it.

This is a nice clock I used to use but I'll have to go look on my G-Play account to see what it's called. I don't use it anymore. Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)

Edit: Here's the clock. I think it comes in 2 sizes and asks for no special permissions....
