    Samsung Chromebook Plus...can it replace a tablet?

    Agreed. I'm ditching my Surface and 12.2 Note Pro. Only want the SCP and my desktop.

    Bluetooth Turns Off Frequently

    I've got the LG G Watch R, you've got questions. Let's do this.

    Sound

    I guess the Live on vibrates No beeps? No sounds? I knew I couldn't answer phone calls and talk to it like I could with the Gear 2 but I'm a little disappointed with the total lack of sound. The vibration is pretty weak also. However, I love the interface Google Now interface.

    Gear Live Ordered!

    I couldn't wait and pulled the trigger and got the Live. If I like it, I'll probably get a replacement watch band. I'm going to sell my Pebble Steel and my Gear 2 Neo on eBay.

    How do you guys like your Gear 2 Neo?

    I'm loving mine. I figured how to customize the screens and move icons around. This will probably be considered not very user-friendly for the average user but I'm a geek. I use my watch a lot and I'm easily getting 2-3 days of battery life. The voice commands are great and it will even respond...

    Can't connect Gear 2 Neo

    Thanks, Doug. My Neo is working perfectly and I love it. The only thing worse than waiting for my Gear to arrive was not be able to use it when it did. Thanks.

    firmware update

    I bought the Gear after hearing about the firmware update that was supposed address the biggest shortcomings (3rd party notifications). Still waiting for the update. Tried side loading using Odin but it failed. C'mon, Samsung.

    I've been scouring the web for a GN3 charging cradle with a slot to charge a spare battery. No luck whatsoever.

    Hisense Sero 7 Pro - Unboxing pictures (no video)

    I wouldn't buy one for myself, but I'm a power user and I can afford something nice. However, if you are on a budget or want to get a tablet for the kids (without worrying that they'll break it), what a bargain. This is a good tablet on its own and a great tablet for the price.
