Dash Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 So far its pretty straightforward. The apps are more like bookmarks. The Dragonfly DAC does not work but the Fiio is plug and play. I think the Pico DAC will work. I have the Acer 11.6 with Celeron and 320gb. Open box was too cheap to not bring home and try it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlSeibert Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 But pricey it seems to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blessingx Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 (edited) Hmmm... "Google is also throwing in 1 terabytes of free online storage in its data centers for three years - a benefit that Pichai estimated would cost $500 to $600." Yeah, it's a steal!

grawk Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 I think Google's lost their marbles. I guess they have cash to burn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Sounds from the article that Ric linked that they're following Apple's pricing model. If that constitutes "losing their marbles", well then...maybe it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeymad Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Maybe they should have put the apple logo on it.. .then pricing not so bad... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blessingx Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 ... and the software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Yeah, I was largely just being snarky. But you have to admit, at least they'll be able to keep up with demand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Google is also throwing in 1 terabytes of free online storage in its data centers for three years - a benefit that Pichai estimated would cost $500 to $600." If you connect via Verizon LTE, it will only cost you $10K to fill that, and another $10K to read it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
