Just wondering how many people have bought one... Personally that's way too rich for my blood.
Plus I can't see it in my entertainment center. Looks a bit silly.
At least they put a microsd slot in it though.... ;-)

There's a Nexus Q forum. This belongs there.
Moving on, I think that it shouldn't be called a Nexus device. How would you develop apps on this thing? And how would you use them on other Android devices?

you guys should buy them off craigslist/ebay for $250
$300 and you have to put it together????? ;-)
I'm in the no catagory. I'm impressed with what it can do but I'm much less impressed with the things that it cannot do. I'll wait for a software revision or an awesome custom mod before I pick one up. I just don't see how they create this device but not merge it's new selling points with Google TV.
I'll echo what has been said. My computer is connected to my TV. Problem solved.
Ouch... The Verge gave it a 5/10.
http://www.theverge.com/2012/6/29/3125551/google-nexus-q-review
I have, for the potential. Very happy with the purchase.
I am trying to pick one up off ebay for $200. Does that count as pre-ordering?
(No computer on the TV here, only a WDTV / Apple TV. I was starting to look into a Sonos system, but I figured I would try the hackable device first.)
Hello,
in my country have not yet said whether it will be for sale, but since I have a friend who is on vacation this summer in California I would like to know if he can find the nexus q at a physical store.
Thank you, Danilo

I actually have two of them. So far they work great. I got them from people who went to Google IO. I paid $215 for one and $225 for the other including express mail shipping.

Sorry. I don't think your friend will find it at a physical store just yet. The only people who have a Q are those who attended Google IO, or those who have bought them from the attendees.
Your friend might try the local Craigslist or Ebay.
Ordered my Q off eBay cant wait for it to get here. All the reviews online are scoring it low because of what it currently offers but its capabilities are endless. The old apple TV is going for $300+ just because it can be hacked and this is $300 and its made to be hacked....Just my $.02
Mine is on the way.
I got mine on Ebay for 100 bones cheaper. As long as it actually arrives, i'll be pretty damn excited about it.:laugh:

The Verge completely discounted the development potential and disregarded the fact that this is more of a dev toy than anything else. I think that once it's been opened up and the oh-so-wonderful things people will be able to do with it they will be sorry they didn't pick one up. Hell, I got one coming from ebay for $200. I think the manufacturing that went into this is well worth it.
Really, how long will it really be before someone has netflix/hulu running on this thing?? A couple months max maybe? Blue tooth game pad? Play games through Onlive with this thing?
I'm hoping to using this thing as a teaching instrument for myself. I've wanted to get into android dev and this device kicked straight in the ass to go for it!
I just bought my third. I've got one in my home office, one in the home theater, and one in the bedroom. I see the potential in this device. I bought one of Ebay for $193 including shipping. I couldn't pass it up at that price.
Just came in!

A good search term for them on ebay is "Andrew Bell Android" Andrew Bell is the guy who designed/made the toys.

Today the nib fell out of my pen and I haven't been able to find it - let alone figure out how it fell out in the first place. I didn't get any replacement nibs in the pack that came with my Flyer: does this mean that I am going to have to get an entirely new pen, or can someone point me to where I can get new nibs? A search on ebay didn't turn up anything.

If it's the wifi version from best buy, i can swear they say on the plastic you can get a replacement one from them.
you might also jump on Ebay and contact this seller that seems to be a 3rd party supplier of HTC pens.

Thanks for the replies, everyone. Being outside the US, seems like I might have to go for the full replacement of the pen. I'll let you know how it works out.
I would contact customer support. The nibs ARE replaceable!
You can buy them, saw it somewhere but not sure where
Anyone get a replacement nib tip for the Scribe pen? I just contacted HTC USA at 866-449-8358 and unbelievably they have no clue on where to get replacements. Spoke to several service reps in various departments yet no one knows. They also transferred me to their accessories dept and they don't even carry the pen.
Can anyone here give me a lead on how to get a hold of one? Thanks!
Surely you have gotten hold of someone that hasn't a clue. They are using the same stylus with the Jetstream tablet and upcoming phones.

I spoke to 3 reps and 2 in the tech department (1 specifically for the tablets), ultimately they will direct you to a company called 'Let's Talk' who states that HTC sends them requests for parts that they never have. Called 3 Sprint stores and spoke with GM's who refer you to contacting HTC directly.
'DigitalMD' it seems like something trivial but do you have a source for ordering the replacement nib?
Thanks.
No I don't , I never tried to obtain one, but I am shocked Sprint and AT&T are currently selling Flyers and Pens
Wish Me Luck!
OK, so I have absolutely NO idea where my stylus tip went. One minute it was there, then gone. I've searched everywhere but it won't turn up until I'm no longer looking for it. So I was looking online. I didn't call support since it sounds like they really aren't much help on these kind of things but I did find tip replacements for a similar pen used by a Motion Computing tablet.
They come in five packs for $15 plus $4.95 shipping. I'll let you know if they pan out. http://www.provantage.com/motion-computing-509-500-02~7MOCUE8C.htm

Kinda crazy that buying a whole new pen is just a few dollars more.
I know. But I have the two button stylus (well actually two of them) so I figure this is probably going to happen again sometime so I might as well have a backup. Of course that assumes this set works.
Ok, so the tips just arrived and we have a match. The tips aren't solid like the original but still work fine. I've included a picture comparing them.

Do you know that in China, if you have money and guts you can blueprint any device to the details and mass produce it legally as long as the name isn't branded yet.
This post made me look at my AT&T SGS2 box a while ago... Yeah, mine is also from China
At least as long as it says "Samsung" with the correct spelling, it is Samsung. Just the "Made in China" thing that bothers many people.

Nice that they are doing that, but does anyone actually use the silicon cases anymore? I though most would use TPU at minimum. Maybe just me, but silicon cases always collected tons of dust and stretched like crazy after 1 or times taking it off the phone.
That will work, gives me some protection for the holiday weekend since my other case won't get here until Wednesday next week. Definitely a classy move to do that without any prompting etc.
Same package here. Sprint going the extra mile to please customers.
That's the way to do business...
Guess it's only special people as I did not get this even though I paid full retail for the phone.

Complementary Case from Sprint
Hey, just thought I post this, sprint just sent me a complementary case to make up for the pre-order patent delay. That was nice of them.
What does the back of the case look like?
I've got one being delivered today as well, apparently. Too bad I've already got a Seidio case and don't like blue cases.
I checked ups using my account number plus zip code since its said too many shipments and its on the truck for today. Very nice of sprint even we know it costs them a buck to make etc but still nice of them.

Can who ever got one post the part or model #. Does it protect the screen too, or is just perimeter protection?
Sweet! I can't afford to get a TPU/Otterbox case in a while so this will do for now!
Thank you Sprint!
Guess I spoke too soon. Looks like I have an extra package coming today as well. Kinda funny cause I just ordered a casefrom telesales that should be here today as well.
In any case it's a very nice gesture that sprint and htc are doing. Even if I didn't get anything from them I wouldn't be complaining as the phone was well worth the wait.

I've had the V30 since launch and am looking hard at the V60. I've never owned a Samsung, but also considering the S20.
I currently have a Note9 as my main device and a Mate 10 Pro as a back up. This is because I really like using a desktop mode on my device. Now LG have implemented a version they come into my sights as a viable option. And the V60 looks to be an awesome option. The second screen looks genuinely useful as well.
I'm considering the V60 as my next option. I'm on a Moto Z Play with a cracked screen so I've been looking for something to upgrade to for quite some time. The V60 checks all the boxes I need:
good sized battery
good screen
good connectivity
good audio
good features
I probably won't use the dual screen accessory often. If they price the V60 right, it will be an instant buy for me.
Depends on whether I can remap the STUPID assistant button or not. If I cannot remap it, then absolutely NO! Turning it off is not good enough. If it is there I want it to do something, but I never use these useless assistants at all!
I'm extremely tempted.. after ordering my s20 Ultra 3 weeks ago and coupled by the fact that I am still awaiting it to ship I'm about to cancel my order and await for this to officially drop.
Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk
I'll probably think about getting one because I'm not satisfied with my LG G8 battery life. It's kinda bad. Probably a bad unit, I know most people are getting decent battery life.
Although the V60 will probably be too big for me. Owned a 6.4" phone in the past and it was big, but 6.8"? Damn lol

Did a live chat with LG tech support yesterday to ask whether the STUPID dedicated Google Assistant button could be remapped to anything more useful...The answer was NO. So I told the tech to forward my decision to those who make such decisions that they lost a sale. I hate useless features that cannot be disabled, uninstalled, or especially for a hardware button...cannot be remapped to something else. Their loss...many more fish in the sea! Looking at the new Sony Xperia 1 Mark 2. Meh
Ordered mine first thing this morning. Glad I did because AT&T is now out of stock already lol. Can't wait to come back to LG after having an iPhone for 2 years. I still use my V20 for things my iPhone can't do. I shouldn't need a supplementary phone if I paid $1k.

I look forward to hearing from you on the remapping issue. I have done a great deal of searching for answers to my question with several different LG devices that have the button incorporated into the hardware and the answer is always a big fat NO to LG allowing a remap of the Google Assistant button. I have read about a few work around's or 3rd party apps that partially work, and then there are those who say the work around's do NOT work for them...so it appears to be hit-and-miss. Some have surmised that it is Google that doesn't allow this to take place. If that is so then Google must be paying a tidy sum to LG and other OEM's that include the button in their devices. This to me is the epitome of arrogance to think that people want their useless crap forced on them when paying major money for a cell phone. I will be sure to spend my money elsewhere. For LG to agree to a $$$$ contract with Google for something like this will not bale them out of bankruptcy should this phone fail...in fact...it may lead directly to the very failure they're trying to avoid. So sad!

Will you keep the phone in the dual screen housing 24/7? If not, what are you looking at for cases?
Unlocked carrier available yet?
LG V60 ATT US order
Just ordered mine, ATT in the US. So how do we get the Dual Case Offer? I found it finally on the LG site. Have to enter your email and they send a link to send the proof of purchase too, have to wait until you get the phone.
