They are showcasing right now a new 7 inch tablet that looks pretty nice.

Reminds of an Apple launch for some reason...

Shame they opted for a 7 inch, more of a phablet than a tablet so still can't compete with the iPad.
Glad they've finally admitted and sorted out the atrocious graphics/touch performance on Android. Makes a world of difference.
Google Now is pretty awesome

Now something called Nexus Q, a ball shaped device to stream media to it.
- $299ernexbcn

i like this idea for the nexus q:
"Another use case mentioned was a collaborative playlist, where a bunch of friends hanging out with their Android devices can each contribute songs to the list from their Google Play accounts."- iOS has this too, but a bit different, people in your party can vote tracks from your playlisternexbcn

I'm sorry, but Google are lacking in the taste department; they try to go to "big" with these events (like Microsoft) and come off as engineers who are disconnected from the form of their products...

Google just took a huge dump on Apple with this amazing conference. What amazing new features, products and demos. Being tech geek has never been more exciting.
- Are you their monolith?ideaist
- how many of these amazing features will actually be implemented, sold or even work right?utopian
- Boz?monospaced

The Google OS blows monkey balls, can't even remotely compare to Apple's OS. Apple's OS actually works and performs as advertised, unlike Android!

it's funny seeing Apple fanboys getting pissed after seeing how Apple crap has just been made obsolete and ridiculous.
Good luck using your shit maps with no public transit or any cool shit. Hey you have shit 3D maps.. It's awesome!
- New maps have an API so 3rd parties enable transit and other kind of map features.ernexbcn
- And Google will still offer their maps app on iOS, so there you go.ernexbcn
- That's a 3D photo?
looks like a bomb hit
that photo.utopian - It's funny seeing PC fanboys getting pissed about Apple fanboysgoldieboy
- wow that looks like shitmoldero
- That's actually what that part of town looks like, don't judge.nikdaum

i often find that content creators confuse themselves with developers.
Google Now will make Google inc another billion bucks alone.
This developer keynote inspires! fuck apple couldn't get past 3 mins without jabbing at ICS. (maybe that annoys them) The Knowledge Graph seems a like killer api which in conjugation with the killer google search algorithms will definitely empower app makers.im also impressed with the shipping dates; all set within 1 week.
jelly bean is already available in both product development kit (for devices) and sdk.fuck man, can't some of you apple supporters even acknowledge the the speed these devices are growing ? fucken tablet has 12 cores!!
anyway i hope both houses understand tech changes and we're all running on intel and tegras.
- Tech is tech; both companies are producing beyond anything we could have imagined 10 years ago...ideaist
- What's so special about the cores? you make it sound like Google designed the chips.ernexbcn
- Oh and Apple makes a lot of more money, not saying what they announced is crap thoughernexbcn
- This was easily the best I/O event they have done so farernexbcn
- @ernexbcn, my point is apple and fanboys have a hard time with healthy competition and it showsplash
- really? they are the biggest company on earth at the moment, not sure what you meanernexbcn
- And their new tablet is going against the Amazon tablet more than against the iPadernexbcn
- do you bump into things with those blinders on fanboy?antagonlsta
- last i heard Exxon Mobil was the biggest in the world. http://www.forbes.co…plash

Tony Stark's OS is way better than Apple/Google/Microsoft.

I've not seen any of it, ill catch up this weekend.
Its a shame its a 7 inch tablet, I always find that screen size lacking compared to 10 inch tablets.
