Yeah, well, I'll deal with that when the time comes. Right now I'm having trouble pairing them when I lean the NC against the side of the PS3. Anyone out there gotten farther than me?

LMAO Is it really 6 inches? I've been planning on doing this too so I could get rid of the 2nd keyboard but oh well. There goes that.

No, basically the moto laptop dock is just a lcd screen and keyboard and it uses your phone as the cpu, ram, ext. What you can do is get the media dock a bt keyboard and mouse and use your tv like the laptop dock though.

Anybody have a Nexus 7 w/ a 4.8" screen phone?

So I just sold my Acer a500 with hopes of getting 32gb nexus 7. But my gf raised a point of, is it worth it since your phone is already almost 5 in. So does anyone else have a large screen phone an still enjoy an think their nexus 7 is worth it? My dad offered me his transformer prime for $300 so now I'm thinking about that since its way improves over my a500.
I really just use my tablet for web browsing an viewing power points an documents for college. So, do you guys think its worth it if you have a large sized screen phone?

I thought exactly the same as you having a HTC One X.. But the difference between the two is like chalk and cheese.

Yeah I have a sgs3. I held the 7 last night an the screen looked very nice an fit well in the hand. Just worried about downgrading to 7 from 10 in. But for what I used my Acer for, the 7 seems like it will be fine. Just like I said in my post about it being not "too" far off from my sgs3 4.8" screen.

For me personally the N7 is too small for web browsing, I don't like to zoom in and out all the time. I think that 8-9' is the perfect size, but I don't see Google making it anytime soon, so I'm going to buy the N10 as soon as its available.

There was no WiFi at Walmart where I had it so I couldn't try web browsing. So I can't really comment on zooming in an out. On my 10" Acer I still had to zoom in an out browsing the web. Though it depended what orientation I had it in. Landscape I could read as is, but portrait I had to zoom in a lot.

Using Bluetooth mouse on Xoom

Is it possible to use a Bluetooth mouse on a Motorola Xoom II, although the Xoom hasn't got a cursor is it possible
Thanks
Sent from my XOOM 2 using xda premium
Not sure about a mouse but...
I have a Stingray that ran stock ICS 4.0.4 and now is rooted with CM 10.0.0 with JB 4.1.2.
For the last 2 years, I've used an "Apple Magic Trackpad" as a mouse. Finger movement on the Trackpad causes a blue "halo" to appear on the Xoom screen. I also use an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard.
Now, there may be other options but Apple was the only "Bluetooth" input devices when I was looking.

As long as it has anything above android 3.2 it should work.

you can enable pointer location in developer options too.
or even use Droidmote on your touchscreen phone and use that as a mousepad

Absolutely! Moto made their own even and they're really very good. You can buy just the keyboard and mouse together or they do a work and play kit that includes a dock with 3 USB ports, analogue audio out and mini HDMI plus your HDMI cable, a high power adaptor the keyboard and the mouse. The cursor appears once the mouse is active.
Good post. I forgot Moto had their own kit.

What physical keyboard do you use and why?

I searched back a few months and didn't find to much about people recommending a good keyboard.
So...
Pretty simple what do you use, why and would you recommend it?
Also, I came across this. Do any of you have any information on it?
Google Keyboard. The latest update adds a lot of additional settings; it's fast, free, accurate, and of course from Google! Couldn't ask for much else in a good keyboard.

Like a physical keyboard or app.
Physical keyboard I use a logitech one
Ass for the App I switch of between swype and swiftkey. I like how you can use extensions on swype compared to swiftkey, but I like the accuracy on swiftkey better and the merging of the lanuage into one instead of separate like in swype
My bad, I meant a physical keyboard
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I've been using SwiftKey on both phone and tablet, but the poor accuracy on my phone has been annoying lately.

Apple bluetooth keyboard. Extremely light so it's easy to carry, keys feel great, pairs in seconds.

That's my experience as well. It works a lot better on the tablet then on the phone. Probably the keys are to small on the phone...

I use Switkey for the soft keyboard across all devices. For my N10's physical, I use

The keyboard's removable and held in via magnets, and works beautifully

I have that case/keyboard as well. Its a steal for a case and keyboard combothis inexpensive.
I use the HP Touchpad Bluetooth keyboard and gotta recommend it, great shape, nice keys and pretty cheap (I gave £25 for it but seen them just now for £15 on eBay). There are 2 models UK and US spec. Oh and I've had the batteries in there since January so it's all good from my point of view.

The HP Touchpad's keyboard really is amazingly good. It's in the same class as the Apple Bluetooth Keyboard in my opinion, and usually a fair bit cheaper. The keys do feel a like they have a tad more "friction" though on the travel.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there also a keyboard/trackpad variant of that keyboard? It looks like it would be an amazing complement to an Android tablet.
As for the Moko case users, they're good (had one on my Galaxy Tab), but I never could get behind the weirdly tiny keys near the spacebar/bad travel, even in such a thin case.

Really? I found them quite adaptive. Especially since you can customize the layout of each individual button. The position of it on the screen and 5 different sizes for each button. Even the HUD map on the screen is customizable. I definitely couldn't rock the default controls on GTA 3 and Vice city for mobile. So I suggest you go into the settings

So you can set what buttons do what? Good to know! I'll have to try again. It's on my phone, but I didn't use it because I didn't understand that I could configure it. Thanks!

Not exactly. You can move the buttons pretty much wherever is comfortable for you. And choose 5 different sizes for each one. Yw!

Haha for sure. Also in Vice City mobile you could boost performance and graphics/ draw distance. I'm not certain if you can on gta3 mobile, but you should check it out in the settings. Might be under "display". I don't have a nexus 5 yet, I'd imagine it would look very nice.

The Pocket isn't great, the Pro is good.
So I may pickup a moga pro just for this Badboy. I've been on the fence about it for a while now and this is definitely a game I would invest a controller for.

Same here. The new Moga Power series looks really good. They made it better than the v1 and it now can charge your phone while you play.
Ok that's cool I didn't know there was a new version. But I already have a ps3 controller so no point in buying something else. Unless there was something that attached to the phone like a slide case like the iphone one. Then that would be worth buying (except for iphone it costs 100 dollars id only buy it if it was at most 1/3 of that lol )
Amazon version is out now!! At least for the UK. I'm not going to purchase it from there though, I'm waiting for the Google play version.
