Good Morning Gnexers!
Well, it looks like this year's Nexus offering will be a "minor upgrade" to our Nexi. Better camera and a microSD card slot. But little else to excite me:
Haven't tried, but I'll give it a go once I get the JB OTA in a little bit. BTW, How have you been?
Been well Pup. I've been busy this week playing on one of there best video game platforms ever - a multi-million dollar full motion Airbus simulator. Granted, there wasn't a lot of "playing" involved, but it was still fun to do things that you wouldn't want to do in a live airplane and passengers on board.
Pup, looks like a go on the HDMI out!
Okay, time for tv shopping. Probably something cheap as we're only really watching Netflix which maxes out at 720p.
Anyone good with wall mounting a tv? Not sure which I'll get but looking at something between 8-12 pounds. Anyone recommend a mount? Will have to look for studs, and hoping to get one that swivels. They look pretty pricey though.

Oooh, the flight simulator to beat all flight simulators. How many virtual coffees were spilled.

Thanks, Geek.
I might just pick up a cheap Insignia at BB. We have a surround sound system from them and it certainly get's the job done. Insignia™ - 29" Class - LCD - 720p - 60Hz - HDTV - NS-29L120A13
May go with a smaller one, I'll have to look in person. Seriously, I don't need anything too fancy.

Just a word of warning...I have a 32" Vizio that is 720P and the computer desktop looks horrible, barely readable, on it. The larger you go with 720p, the worse the desktop looks. Netflix will still be fine though. I've got a 24" Dell monitor for computing, but also have a second HDMI run over to the Vizio for streaming service watching.

Thanks, Geek.
Yeah, for our purposes, 24-26" should be fine. We have a ~17" monitor now which is actually okay, just looking for something a little larger that I can mount on the wall.

Flight to Tampa booked - don't even need Passbook though as the United app generates the QR code for me.
Definitely going to try to checkin with my phone as opposed to paper ticket and see how it works out.

Reminds me of a time in college. I was taking a flight test course, and we got into the non-motion, full cockpit simulators for a couple hours. Our TA was a flight instructor at the school, and after we finished our test, he talked to his buddy who was with a student, and agreed at the end of the student's lesson, to have some fun. All the simulators were linked, so you could see other airplanes, etc. Well we got coordinates, and set up our plane right below the students, and proceeded to sneak up directly under him, and pull up suddenly right in front of him. Was hilarious.
So there is this hostage situation in Pittsburgh at 3 Gateway Center and the guy is posting to Facebook as it is ongoing.

Didn't some nitwit in Colorado just do the same thing?

Made it back from my 2 hour haul safely. Trailer fishtailed on me a couple times so I kept it pretty slow after that. The way the weight was distributed was a little heavy on the back end but I couldn't move it so I just had to deal with it.
