Ubuntu gets a Nexus 7 installer

Phone Arena:

The point of this project is designed specifically to optimize the base system of Ubuntu including CPU, memory, and power issues. Canonical will not be working on changes to the Ubuntu UI or Unity with 13.04, those changes are tentatively scheduled for 14.04 which is due in April 2014. 

Now that is a real Open Source OS on a tablet.

Another glowing review of the Galaxy Note 10.1

Android Police:

I’m sad to report that Samsung failed at execution on all fronts. Samsung has been pushing the skinning envelope further and further, and, with this revision of TouchWiz, they’ve slammed into a brick wall. Couple this failure with astonishingly bad hardware and a $500 price tag, and you’ve got yourself a real disappointment. Samsung promised us the moon, and then cut corners everywhere possible, and it’s hard to walk away not feeling a little insulted.

And That’s the Wonder of Samesung.

Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 review: Testing the stylus-toting tablet

Computerworld:

For $500, you’re getting a tablet with a cheap-feeling, plasticky build; a disappointing display; inconsistent and at times choppy performance; and a bloated UI based on an already-dated version of Android. But you’re also getting the S Pen, which adds an exceptional element no other tablet can provide.

Great! So a $500 piece of crap with a nice stylus. Also, as much as Samesung and Android fanboys claim that they don’t copy Apple, look at the design. They have to differentiate themselves with this Fisher Price looking thing. Guess the bans around Europe tought them a lesson.

Nokia claims Nexus 7 Tablet infringes on their patents.

A Nokia spokesperson told The INQUIRER, “Nokia has more than 40 licensees, mainly for its standards essential patent portfolio, including most of the mobile device manufacturers. Neither Google nor Asus is licensed under our patent portfolio.

“Companies who are not yet licensed under our standard essential patents should simply approach us and sign up for a license.”
