    Poor GPS without wifi switched on?!

    Its a good question, and I was always wondering the same! However, I would get GPS results even with ignoring the WiFi suggestion message. :) What I do know is-- Cellular phones come with A-GPS (Assisted Global Positioning Systems) .. Not so much a "Pure" GPS system.. It uses cellular towers...

    24 hours in....

    Software is notorious for moving much slower than hardware-- which tends to move quickly.. Especially so when there's very heavy competition.. Like the mobile market. :) Companies would release new hardware simply so the company can hold bragging rights for those 3-6 months, and they come so...

    Where are the most important components located?

    Nexus 4 Teardown - iFixit My favorite site to run to when a new device is out. Nerd porn for me. :)

    Nexus 4 Ordered on November 27: Order Status and Tracking

    Ordered mine November 27th, around 6PM EST. I caught my lunch break just as the phone released, so I tried to order it from my tablet and a public WiFi all lunch break in vain. Curious on how people who got the same 2-3 week shipment delivery time frame already have the phones in their hands...

    Mine is going BACK...!!!

    In the computer world, hardware is notorious for moving faster than software. :) I played with the SGS3 for a little while, but ultimately the biggest turn-off about non-Nexus devices is the short lives they lead before the manufacturer simply terminates that product line. In the past I...

    Nexus 4 Conspiracy Theory

    Conspiracy theories are perhaps fun, but ultimately silly and not meant to be taken seriously. :P But while we're on the subject.. While I'm not an expert in the subject matter, I've heard of stories of big companies purposefully shorting product availability on purpose on first release date...

    Nexus 4 will be available today at Noon PST

    Finally got mine ordered.. I saw it on sale during lunchtime (3pm EST east coaster here) and I nearly dropped my damn lunch in complete surprise when I went to check my E-mail over my tablet. I spent lunch joining the F5-athon, but I had to go back to work. I'm shocked to that I was able...

    Can we all just chill out a bit...

    ..And that's all the answer I really need, and have been looking for a while :) My concern was not for not having the phone in my hands RIGHT NOW-- but if it will STAY IN STOCK when it does finally return to the market.

    Worse Nexus 4 news article?

    Good news overall. That may mean more choices for the huge crowd still hungering to get their hands on a Nexus 4 phone, more stock and less likelihood for a 2-minute sellout or something. :P The only expense might be a longer wait period for restock.

    Google Store not the only one with issues....

    Funny enough, this is kind of the same visual representation I had in my head on Nov. the 13th when the Nexus 4 phones were out.. In particular when people were complaining about their phones disappearing from their shopping carts. I figure with the way Google Play probably had things set up...

    thoughts on nexus 4 ips screen vs galaxy nexus amoled?

    Surprised nobody has bought up the problem with the common S-AMOLED screen.. The dreaded Mura Effect. http://i.imgur.com/HvNj2.jpg Utterly unnoticeable in every day conditions except when you attempt to display a pure black background in the dark.. Or in my case-- watching a Netflix video on...

    nexus 10 16GB back...

    About a week or so, according to this article. Google Nexus 7 Back in Stock in Google Play (16GB) :) According to the responses to the thread, I guess it depends on LG, and how badly they wish to capitalize on the Black Friday / holiday season. Which is fuzzy. The best indicator we have is...
