The Nexus Q allows you to take media from the Google Play Store and You Tube and stream it to that 60 inch plasma set in the living room. Now that the cute little orb is in stock at the Google Play Store,
orders are now being shipped in 3 to 5 business days. The price of the accessory is $299.00 and to soothe your guilt, the device is built in the States. Not only will you be helping the economy in the U.S., you also won't be adding to the exploitation of some 12 year old girl in another country, saving up to buy American made jeans for $100 and Justin Bieber CDs.
For the Nexus Q to work, you need to
own an Android phone or tablet with Android 2.3 or higher installed.
Introduced along with the Jelly Bean flavored Google Nexus 7 tablet and almost immediately available for pre-order, the former is going to be a tougher sell than the low-priced ASUS built tablet. Still, we're sure there will be those who find the Nexus Q to be a useful party accessory. And if we see some people staying away from their local movie theater in light of the tragedy in Aurora, the Nexus Q could be more popular than expected.
