What do you think about this advertisment? I think it is too agresive and will carry on consecuences from apple...
I'll play along I'm bored. There is nothing untrue about there statements so I don't see how there can be any Consequences

Yes, I would prefer it too, but, are companies allowed to use other devices images (ipad) and sounds (siri) to sell their products?

So many think that Google copied things from Apple to create the Android platform. Well iPhone users can be happy that it happens all the time.
Apple copies a bunch of features from Android, calls it iOS5
Just goes to show you that there are no new ideas, the best ones are stolen from your competitors!

Idea Sharing
They're all constantly grabbing content from each other, so this really isn't anything new. Every month we get another lawsuit opened that any one of the bigger manufacturers stole some idea from another group.

Let people know about this. This is normal there is no need for sueing. Everybody get their ideas from somewhere to start with. They get creative and build something better. At the end of the day we will see a fast growing tech development for the betterment of all people.

Apple seems to be also having quality control issues with the iPhone 5, users are reporting marks, scratches, rattling lenses, missing headphones, not charging, yellow screens, light bleeding etc out of the box... they are having a good ole meltdown(It's a £530 and up phone so I don't blame them). I preordered the iPhone 5 as well and I'm crossing my fingers and toes that I don't get one of those. Is Foxconn to blame for all these scandalous Quality Control(I'm assuming they made the Nexus 7 too right?)?

Wow, I thought Nexus 7 problemes were severe, but these little dents are absolutely not acceptable /irony.
However, I have seen how easily it is scrated, therefore I am happy to see all isheep boasting about how thin their devices are only to put them in thick cases
God those people are suffering from severe OCD to be *****ing about this 8 days before the device even starts selling
Just what does this have to do with Nexus 7 or Android?

I'm not sure why people ever compared things to Apple as if they are the supreme target to base judgment on. Apple has always had qc issues... Just like countless other tech companies out there. Nobody is perfect and lemons will exist to some degree.

I think the N7 whooped ass.
I took a little trip to Best Buy. I really liked the screen on the FireHD. The Mini isn't even that much different then a regular iPad. There is like an inch difference. "30% Bigger" when the idea is smaller is better = fail.

It's not supposed to be funny. It is supposed to be an entertaining advertisement for how amazingly hardcore their blender is.

This is inane. Obviously none of you have studied the centrifugal properties of rotational velocidensity at high accelerations. The degradation of the spacetime curve is quite obvious to the trained eye, with signs of mitochondrial necrosis in the sub units of all three devices. From this video one can conclude that the nexus 7 does in fact possession greater tensile biokinetic adhesion while the other two have electrical neo synthesis in spades.
Tricked hard.
I really hate these stupid vs posts. Can't we just stick to posts that pertain to the N7 only?
And I won't break any rules this time, I'll make sure to ask permission from the creator to edit his/her content and post it on our device, and this will be the LAST ROM I will be porting, if I do. After that, I'm done porting and I will be upgrading to either the iPhone 5 or the HTC One or S Blaze

The iPhone 5 is nice. Especially the camera. I would get one but I cannot afford it. I would get the iPhone over the One S, better hardware and the new iOS update should be pretty remarkable with Johnny Ive handling it.

"The only winner is Windows" That was the conclusion of the article, because appearantly M$ has enough patents and licences to cover all makers of Windows Phone - Capacitive screens or not! So Sammy and LG "could" produce Windows Phones and pay MS their cut and call it a day
The reason why we'll never see the end of Android (well at least in the next 10-20 years) is that the market share is so paramount. Such an event would have so many economical consequences that the governments would step in before anything would happen.

It'll also be held up in appeals for years. Not only that, but I'm pretty sure this would only cover OEM keyboards that come pre-installed. I really doubt that it would affect third-party apps like SwiftKey. Worst case scenario, there will end up being some kind of technical workaround that approximates current usage but skirts the patent. There's no real reason to worry about this.
