Any guesses when Google will push out an update to fix some of the problems with our Nexus 7s? The biggest problem that needs addressing on my end (and I would think would be a priority if Google wants to sell these devices for use in Corporate or University environments) is the problem with WPA Enterprise Wireless (it doesn't work in many cases). Secondarily I've seen occasional issues with the screen failing to respond to touch and taps. Nothing overwhelming, but occasionally annoying. I know there was the 4.1.1 update that came out at about the time the device was launching, but the wireless issue really needs to be addressed by Google.
 
I agree. The WPA Enterprise issue is the reason I still have to take my Apple product with me to work. Apple connects no problem... Nexus 7, can't connect at all.
 
I would like to see either the regular Android browser brought back or fix Chrome's serious lag issues. IMO Chrome is the only thing that kills the Jellybean experience on the N7. Everything IMO is working pretty good but I'm sure there are other bugs that Google can address as well with the next update.
 
A return of the News & Weather widget would be welcome. Google Currents is crap as a substitute. Otherwise, it's only individual apps which need updating on mine.
 
My expectation is they'll push an update to coincide with the release of the dock. Given there's no usable homescreen or lockscreen in landscape, and the dock requires the N7 to sit in a landscape orientation, they have to fix that when they release the dock. There'll probably be a few bugfixes rolled in there at the same time.

Totally agree. Although if you open the stock clock app it looks awesome in landscape sitting on a bedside table stand lol. I can't wait for a real dock though.
