Google Nexus 7 Tablet

Really looking forward to receiving my pre-order for Google Nexus 7 tablet, at 7 inch with 1280 * 800 resolution, quad core NVidia Tegra 3 Cpu with 12 Core GPU and at 340g, along with the updated 4.1 Jelly Bean OS, Early techrader preview sounds positive, I think google are onto a winner. Shame that it doesn’t come with a micro-sd slot and the shipping is 2-3 weeks 🙁

  1. Hi there,

    I’m also looking forward to the asus google nexus 7 talbet that should be out any day now! Do you know if java applications are going to work on it? (They do not on my google nexus phone)
    Regards,
    Mike

    1. Android does not natively run Java applications, although apps for Android are mostly developed in the Java language they get converted in Dalvik byte codes (not the same Java byte code), they execute on the Dalvik virtual machine (again not the same as Java Virtual machine). In theory, if someone wrote a Java Virtual machine for Android, it would be possible, but as far I know there is none available.

  2. Hey thanks for writing back!

    To be honest I just don’t get it. This is what keeps me holding on to a laptop. No flash and no java on the tablets and phones. So many webpages these days use either of those. Like a simple animated radar weather loop. Or a java app to watch stock quotes in real time. Seems like if Andriod or iOS for that matter were willing to take it on would be a huge competitive advantage in the marketplace.

    Must be reasons. Hate to think that no one is thinking about this. It’s frustrating for me.
