    I'm not up to speed with mobile tech, having used a Nexus 7 for several years now but have had to upgrade as it's finally given up.

    I know the Shield TV has one, but they aren't available in the UK until the end of this year (unless you import at a vastly inflated price) & I'm looking to buy something now. Does anyone know of another box that uses this processor or has a similar level of power?

    I don't have a a whole lot of experience with Android devices.. may be considering a phone upgrade soon & potentially a K1 Tablet after there's a few out in the wild, which brings me on to my question..

    Songs you can't help liking..?

    Stuff that you ordinarily wouldn't touch with a long pole but for whatever reason can't quite help yourself.. I'm a staunch old punk/metal head at heart.. but there's quite a bit of stuff that's as far away as it's possible to get, that I have a soft spot for.. I'm only going to admit to one...

    Help I've inherited an original (broken?) Nexus 7

    From a young Nephew that's probably tweaked it one too many times.. There doesn't seem to be any damage to it, but it doesn't ever boot just showing the Google logo & an unlocked padlock. If I hold the power/volume buttons for a while I'm taken to 'Team Win Recovery Project v2.2.1' I don't...

    DraStic (DS Emulator) coming to Android

    DraStic (DS Emulator) for Android This is very good news, the guy doing this is something of an emulator maestro & a bit of a legend in the Pandora community.. he's produced some incredible stuff for the Pandora. It's also a native project & not a half assed port/fork of an already shoddy...

    Tiny Token Empires.. Tablets not supported?

    This just recently appeared on Google Play & my Nexus 7 is apparently incompatible.. does anyone know if it is something to do with the Tegra 3 or are all Android Tablets unsupported? It's a real shame as I played it to death on a friend's Ipad & it's a great little game imho.

    Kotor possibly coming to Android Tablets..?

    Just read this I know it's a long-shot to assume an Android version would appear if of course there's anything to this story, but it doesn't hurt to dream.. the game is one of my all time favorites & could work fantastically well on a Tablet if the controls were intelligently implemented. I'll...

    Anyone know anything about Android Usb Sticks..?

    Are there any decent ones out there yet..? I'm considering one primarily for use as a media streamer (XBMC) & perhaps some gaming/emulator shenanigans (if they are capable enough) Can the latest ones cope well with HD streaming..? I seem to remember reading 6 or so months ago that most were...
