| Personally, I don't understand the appeal of the Nexus Q at a $300 price point. I'd rather see the functionality packaged into the Nexus 7/Jelly Bean and offer a $50-$100 dock for the Nexus 7 that includes an audio amplifier and the same connections that the Nexus Q offers. You'd end up with way more capability for the same price. The Nexus Q should be offered for less than $100, and have access to all the same apps as the tablets to be competitive. Since it is running Ice Cream Sandwich, I bet somebody will add those capabilities to other devices...

| Here's some speculation about the price... Made in the USA: Google's Nexus Q is symbolic and significant | The Verge So, want "Made in the USA"? It'll cost you...a LOT!
