    When are they going to make the next version of the Nexus 7?

    Yes I did. I'm not familiar with the Shield except I always hear people saying good things about it. The Samsung's have the best super sharp and bright amoled screens and they are the lightest. They've got the Android 6 on them now. I'm not at all impressed with the 6. I hope they get the...

    Fingerprint unlock turned off if not used in 24 hours after upgrade to Marshmallow?!!!

    The only time FP turn on works is when the tablet is already on and I shut off the screen and turn it back on. Then the FP thing works good.

    Fingerprint unlock turned off if not used in 24 hours after upgrade to Marshmallow?!!!

    My fingerprint turn on doesn't work at all since the so called update. I set it for FP start with pin backup, but every time I start it it demands my pin and no fingerprint. It gives me the message that it needs my pin to protect my firngerprint whatever that means. It's another thing that...

    When are they going to make the next version of the Nexus 7?

    I had two n7 2013s. I liked them as lot but the charger plug on the first one broke and I cracked the screen on the second. I traded the first one in for a Samsung TabS2. I still have the cracked screen one. I then bought a second TabS2 so now I have both the 8 and 9.7 inch versions. I like...

    Who has NOT received an OTA yet?

    Nothing here, nor do I care. What do I need it for? It works fine now. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

    My Nexus 9 (w/ misc iPad Air) Impressions (Ongoing)

    Awesome review, HighTechToid. I'm looking at either the Ipad Air 2, but waiting to see if they sort out some reported early problems, like WiFi, or the Samsung whatchamacallit, the 10" with the great screen.

    The Nexus 9 is totally Awesome

    Doesn't look that awesome to me. Combined US and UK Amazon reviews = 127 so far, and the average review is 3 1/2 stars, much lower than any other major tablet.

    Nexus 9 price drop @ Amazon UK

    Not nearly enough to tempt me.

    Re: Bought a Nexus 9.. returned it, got a surface pro 3, Tab S & an ipad air 2. Now buying N9 again That's the tablet I want to get now, the Tab S 10.5, but I'm thinking of waiting until the next update. Samsung updates a lot. Do you think they might do so before Christmas? Meanwhile I've...

    The Nexus 9 is totally Awesome

    There are some good reviews on Amazon. Some people love it, some don't. What's inside underneath that squooshy back, and what happens if it accidentally gets pushed harder?

    Anyone else disappointed by the Nexus 9?

    That's true, but a Kindle is best for reading regular books. I have both a Kindle and a tablet, and a laptop.

    "Yep, you're going to have to wait until Thanksgiving. Their website will take order with the discount that day, I assume until their allotment for this sale is reached. In store they should have some as well, if you're willing to stand in line." Oh, forgedaboutit then. I don't want to deal...

    Anyone else disappointed by the Nexus 9?

    " I often read at night in night mode (inverted screen) and the light bleed was too strong and and uneven. I checked against my N7 2013 and my wife's iPad Air and they were a lot better. Whenever I use my wife's Air, I sure do miss the back button from Android! " Why not get the Kindle? I...

    Anyone else disappointed by the Nexus 9?

    Kp - My router is only about 4 months old so it should be good. I'm not clear about the BB ad. I see where it says $100 off on all Ipad Air 2's, 16,64, and 128, but when I click on shop now I don't see the discount. Do I need to wait to their black friday sale and fight the crowds to use that...
