This little app should solve your emoji issue...

You'll have to read/write in the app itself but it gets the job done.

Maybe changing the screen dpi to make it the same as a 10" tab would work ... hmm

Got it! Works really well! Don't know why they've pulled it??

Hi guys. I just got my N7 this morning. At the moment I own Apple iPad 2, New iPad, iPhone 4S, iMac, Retina MB Pro, S3.
My first jump to the Green army was last month when I bought the S3 to replace the BB. And I was just blown away with the performance of the S3 and the customization levels that can be done. With that said, the experience with the S3 got me convinced to get the N7 and boy am I glad i took this decision. Planning on selling my iPad soon as the N7 fits my requirements perfectly well of a tablet.

Cheers.

Welcome on board...even though I'm a newbie myself lol

Nice to see you aboard.
Get the GO Keyboard from the market. Open and install the Emoji plugin. Should fix that for you.
Have fun with your customizations.

Android is a really awesome device and I'm no android fan boy. If apple made a better more customizable product, the decision would be much harder for me.

Ever since getting my nexus 7 its been right in my pocket, it has already made a trip around the world on vacation with me and came back safely, lol. I also take it to work and spend hours on netflix with it. Work would be unbearable without it

I know what you mean. For me, iOS hasn't really changed much since day one, it's getting a bit boring now! To be honest, if they just opened it up a bit there wouldn't be as much jailbreaking going on....doubt it'll happen though.

**jdposhkus** · 08-19-2012, 08:54 AM

The N7 marks my return to android after a year long hiatus. During that year I plunged deeply into all things Apple. I love the size of the N7 picked up a GNex and shelved my iP4s for a while. What it came down to for me was a nearly unusable camera and horrible battery life. Going back to the iP4s was a necessity (for me) But I am glad to be back tinkering with Andy. Android has evolved considerably in the last year. All my pals have picked up N7 and it is the perfect travel device. Now when I use my iPad it feels like I am holding a sheet of plywood!!!

**djnshores** · 08-19-2012, 10:55 AM

"It feels like holding a sheet of plywood." That's a reasonably accurate analogy. My son has an iPad 2 and it is a great device. But its size, weight, and price don't work for me. The Nexus 7 is perfect for my use and the price is right. I have a lot of fun and useful apps. Android 4.1 on the Nexus is very responsive and it has the right amount of hardware.

I think the Nexus makes a good case for Apple to come out with a 7 or 8 inch mini iPad.

**enb123** · 08-19-2012, 11:09 AM

I picked one up at Staples the other day. (I mean, I literally lifted it up - I haven't bought it... yet!) I was blown away by how light it was. I own an iPad 1 - which I bought around launch day before it really had competition - and it's not really a good size for every day commuting. Plus, as much as I want to like iOS, it's just not for me. I'll definitely choose this, or something like it, over the iPad Mini when Christmas rolls around.

**jenskristian** · 08-19-2012, 04:57 PM

Glad you are enjoying your Nexus 7. Welcome to the Android side of things and enjoy the freedom

I know what you mean, but I understand why they keep a tight reign on some things. But when it comes to something like mouse support not being available. I think that's ridiculous. I had to jailbreak just to get a bluetooth mouse working. And Bluetooth is a standard so I'm not sure what the deal is there.

Yeah, don't get that either, especially when that's what I'd call the basics?!

What about the 4th (Windows Phone 7/8)?
I've got all 4 though rarely stray too far from Android since the others simply don't meet my needs. We'll see what this quarter & the next bring from them all.
