You can enable/disable syncing on each account. It's in settings under accounts. With sync turned off, you just open the email account and tap the "refresh" icon.

When I plug my Nexus into my Windows PC via USB I can browse the folders and copy stuff back and forth. I imagine it works the same on a Mac, too?

Keep in mind, though, that you are paying for the content, not the media. But yeah, they should eliminate the overhead cost instead of converting it to extra profit. Plus I'm guessing the publishers make most of the money, not the authors.

On any form with a text input box where you normally type, you will see a little microphone button. Tap that and start talking.

Re: The Got MY Nexus7, and just as wowed as I thought I'd be thre Got mine yesterday, even better than expected. Puts my Moto Xoom wi-fi to shame. My review with some screenshots... The Google Nexus 7 tablet has arrived

It's a licensing deal. Hopefully they will get it worked out someday. Only Apple has Beatles, though, if I'm not mistaken. One thing I noticed with Google Music is that the files are max MP3 quality at 320K constant bit rate, whereas Amazons are ~256K variable bit rate. Not a huge (or even...

Got mine yesterday afternoon. Very impressed, and I already had high expectations.

Yay! United States 07/11/2012 6:20 A.M. Order Processed: Ready for UPS Louisville, KY, United States 07/16/2012 10:36 A.M. Origin Scan Scheduled Delivery Updated To: Tuesday, 07/17/2012, By End of Day (Being delivered to East TN)

Yes, the Xoom Wifi is stock ICS (soon to be Jelly Bean), and it rotates the home screen unless you have it locked. (Curiously, you can't lock it in portrait mode.)

I haven't used any Apple products so I can't comment on how to make your Android device more like Apple. My impression, though, is that Apple has a much more controlled, standards-based environment which results in overall higher quality and more robust applications. And there's the simplicity...

Re: [POLL] How likely to buy from play store after this experienc Yes, I would pre-order devices from the Play Store again, just with lowered expectations. (I hope the next thing is a killer Google TV box with DLNA, lots of video/audio connections, etc., i.e. not the Q ball thing which is...

Yes. I wasn't too worked up about it until I got a fake "shipped" email with a tracking number that wasn't in the UPS system. Now today, 48 hours later, it is in their system and it says the label was printed on Jul. 11th but they still don't have the product. This is like some bad eBay or...

I was having a hard time getting too worked up about the botched launch or waiting a little longer and so forth. But back to the topic of email notifications with tracking numbers that don't show up in UPS tracking, this is major fubar. I ordered on the 27th, got an email Saturday the 14th at...

Have not tried it on Nexus 7 yet, hopefully will next week. Have used it on the Motorola Xoom, though, and it's pretty nice. You can view full color just like the print edition pages with ads and everything, one-up in portrait or two-up side by side in landscape. Better still, you can display...

Ordered 27th, got email at 3AM this morning saying order shipped and UPS tracking nbr. Tracking nbr still not in UPS system, though. Google said it could take 24 hours to show up.
