sorry if this is not related to this thread. Delete if it is.

You do technically have a GPU, it's just likely an Onboard one built into your Mobo for stock sales.

GPUs must be purchased separately, and the good ones are all aftermarket anyway. Depending on what kind of slots you have and what kind of performance you want, they can run twenty dollars to four hundred dollars.

when it doesn't work well, shockingly, it sucks. the kensington had no lag but the other aspects of it got on my nerves

... And this may be why I have a BlueAnt bluetooth device for my phone which doesn't even work with my phone at all...
While you are technically responding to an ancient post, I'll chip in on that: I have not ever gotten a bluetooth accessory that worked properly. I've had numerous cellphones over the years, many with free bluetooth, and on two separate occasions, setups I bought separately for not-inconsequential dollar.

Garbage product Quality Control. Almost as bad as Apple circa-2003-2006.

True, and I have only had ONE bluetooth device myself and it works like, well, let me spell it for you... G.A.R.B.A.G.E.
It probably will but oh my god, ladies, please, move out of my way. That is seriously sexy tech.
I saw that video for it, so sick. I have another laptop that doubles as a tablet, but it's just carp and clunky.

I honestly don't care what the cost is, it's really impressive. My brother wants to get a computer, I'm trying to influence him to get that. He doesn't want to wait until it's released though.
Hi. Turns out my sis got a new OS. Her computer doesn't have Bluetooth anymore, even though it used to. Is there any ways to get it back? I tried looking though System32, but no luck. I need to link the computer with my phone using Bluetooth... Anyways, need an answer ASAP. Thanks!
I totally look forward to the Surface. It's just too bad people let the past mistakes of hardware footprint their future.
Does anyone know about any android apps that let you see what model a wifi router is?
Thanks.
It looks like something out of Gundam ... but it's damn cool looking, too. I've got to wonder who'll be able to afford those, though.
So, Windows 8 will launch on October 26, along with the Microsoft Surface. I'm interested to see how the reception will be, given the amount of negativity that has been said about Windows 8 so far.
That is the first step into real gunmen. Hell, that is basically a gunmen.
Awesome Laptop tech
and
Wow Expensive RoBOT
Hello. I recently tried to install the ICS Rom, but was unsuccesful. I had the Clockworld Recovery app, and did a back up of my original ROM, or atleast, I think.
I tried to update to the new ROM, but did not do a data wipe. I didnt know if it would wipe all my data, which I needed. I DID do a dalvik cache wipe...

I tried to boot into recovery, but it was no use. I cannot download any software on my computer, so no
programs will work.

I CAN boot into Android System Recovery.

I need the phone ASAP. It gets stuck on the boot up. It displays the Samsung Galaxy Y screen, plays a different type of music from the original, and gets stuck on the black screen.

Did I brick my phone? Softbrick? Should I bring it to the tech? Please HELP!

Today I found out that I can trade my Nook Tablet in. So Im debating between the Nexus 7, Nook HD+, and Kindle fire HD. Which one would you get? IM kinda leaning towards the kindle fire HD since it does have a camera. Im not a big fan of the Ipad.
Get the Kindle Fire. I have dropped it a couple times, and it still works. Great touch screen too. Friendly interface!

Does it have the Facebook/Twitter Aps? It is Android powered right?
Yes, and it does have all those apps. If it doesn't have them, you should be able to download them. Funny thing is, though, you cannot use Google Play Store. You have to use the built in store. That's one disadvantage, but at least you know all the apps are compatible!

Do you know if either the Nook HD+ or Kindle Fire HD have location services like the Ipad?

There is an app for it that is compatible with the Kindle Fire.
