yes, but you would need to install an app on the N7 first if your broken screen will let you.

search here or at the Google Play store for Remote Desktop or VNC for specifics

Yeah that doesnt work
its only for controlling your Nexus 7 if you have Ubuntu install on the tablet

Any one else any ideas?

Airdroid might give you some functionality but you have to install the app.

What are you trying to do? Restore it to stock before exchanging it? If so, try using factory images or factory reset through the N7 Toolkit on xda.
