Google cancela la Pixel Tablet 2 por baja demanda y dudas financieras   Google ha cancelado el desarrollo de la Pixel Tablet 2, un modelo que prometía importantes mejoras para los usuarios.Flash Diario en SpotifyEste dispositivo iba a incluir un diseño más refinado, cámaras actualizadas, conectividad 5G y un teclado con touchpad diseñado para mejorar la productividad. Sin embargo, fuentes indican que la empresa teme pérdidas económicas debido al bajo interés en su primer modelo, lanzado en 2023. Esta decisión podría marcar un nuevo abandono de Google en el competitivo mercado de tablets, donde nunca ha logrado igualar el éxito de los iPads de Apple o las Galaxy Tabs de Samsung. ¿Qué opciones quedan para los usuarios que confiaban en la evolución de este dispositivo?    Google deja las tablets por segunda vez   La Pixel Tablet 2 iba a ser el segundo intento de Google por conquistar un segmento que siempre se le ha resistido. Este dispositivo iba a heredar algunas características del modelo anterior, como la integración con un dock magnético con altavoz, pero sumaba novedades como un teclado oficial con touchpad para competir con las tablets orientadas a la productividad. Además, habría contado con el procesador Tensor G4, más potente que el del primer modelo, y variantes con conectividad 5G. A pesar de estas propuestas, Google optó por abandonar el proyecto, redistribuyendo al equipo de desarrollo y dejando a los fanáticos de la marca sin un sucesor en este segmento.   La decisión de cancelar la Pixel Tablet 2 refleja una serie de problemas más profundos. Para empezar, Google ha tenido dificultades históricas para competir en el mercado de tablets. Su primer modelo, aunque interesante, fue criticado por su pantalla de 60 Hz, que se sentía anticuada frente a competidores, y por la falta de aplicaciones optimizadas para Android en pantallas grandes. Además, el precio de salida de $499 no ofrecía suficiente valor frente a opciones más avanzadas o económicas. Otro punto crítico es el enfoque inconsistente de Google hacia este mercado: la compañía abandonó las tablets en 2019 tras las críticas a su Pixel Slate, solo para regresar en 2023 con la Pixel Tablet. Este vaivén ha minado la confianza de los consumidores, quienes necesitan estabilidad para invertir en un ecosistema de productos.   Aunque Google ha cancelado la Pixel Tablet 2, algunos analistas creen que la compañía podría redirigir su estrategia hacia dispositivos como los Nest Hub, que combinan funciones de hogar inteligente con pantallas interactivas. Estos productos han tenido una mejor aceptación, en parte porque no compiten directamente con los iPads. Por otro lado, Google sigue trabajando en mejorar la experiencia Android para pantallas grandes, un movimiento impulsado por la popularidad de los dispositivos plegables. Este desarrollo podría servir de base para futuros intentos en el mercado de tablets. A corto plazo, la Pixel Tablet original continuará recibiendo soporte, pero su futuro está en el aire, dejando a los usuarios preguntándose si deberían buscar alternativas más confiables.   El abandono de la Pixel Tablet 2 resalta un patrón recurrente en Google, una empresa conocida por cancelar proyectos que no cumplen con expectativas internas. Ejemplos como Google+, el Nexus Player y Google Glass ilustran esta tendencia. Este enfoque, aunque pragmático desde el punto de vista empresarial, afecta la confianza del consumidor. En comparación, competidores como Apple han mantenido una evolución constante en sus iPads, asegurando una base sólida de usuarios leales. En el caso de Google, muchos clientes se preguntan si el soporte a largo plazo de sus productos está garantizado. Esta incertidumbre podría beneficiar a otras marcas que ofrecen tablets Android, como Samsung, que continúa innovando con pantallas plegables y tablets premium.   Google ha decidido cancelar su Pixel Tablet 2, dejando a muchos fans preguntándose sobre el futuro de sus tablets. Este movimiento podría significar un cambio de enfoque hacia dispositivos más integrados como los Nest Hub, pero también resalta los desafíos de competir en este mercado. ¿Crees que Google debería intentarlo de nuevo con un enfoque más sólido?

Sometime late last year I realized that I wanted my ordinary bathroom mirror to be more like the future we were promised in the movies. There doesn’t seem to be anyone selling the product I was looking for. The individual parts, however, were fairly easy to get. A number of people have done similar custom builds recently, but I had something different in mind. So I ordered myself a two-way mirror, a display panel and controller board, plus a bunch of components and arts & crafts supplies. In reality there was quite a bit of experimentation and some dead ends before I got to this set of parts, but let’s have a look at the finished — yet by no means final—result: Welcome to my bathroom. Please excuse the carefully arranged mess around the medicine cabinet and its pristine mirror surface. To the right of where my face would be we have the time and date. To the left is the current weather and a 24-hour forecast. Below are some recent news headlines. Here’s a close-up of that area: Unless the weather is cloudy, there will be a little color in the UI, but for the most part the text and icons are monochrome to prevent them from being too distracting. The code behind this UI uses some simple Android APIs (e.g. this one is neat) plus Forecast for the weather and the Associated Press for news. Other concepts I’m playing with are traffic, reminders, and essentially anything that has a Google Now card. The idea is that you don’t need to interact with this UI. Instead, it updates automatically and there’s an open-ended voice search interface for anything else. The display is only a couple of millimeters thin and embedded in a layer between the two-way mirror glass and the door of the medicine cabinet. That way it looks very clean and I can keep using all the shelf space inside. Here’s the open door at an angle and viewed edge-on: This prototype is still a work in progress and I haven’t spent much time on the software yet. The UI above is only a few hundred lines of code and I’m experimenting with different devices to run it—initially Chromecast, then Nexus Player, and most recently Fire TV Stick. That means until I settle on a platform and clean up the electronics it does look a little bit messy when you peek inside: And that’s where I am with this project so far. Looking forward to realizing some of the remaining ideas. Maybe I’ll post a more detailed making-of with the pictures I took during the build.

As of this ending year of 2016, we have seen multiple and rapid developments in the choices available to those who wish to cut the cord but are reliant on speech or low-vision tools. Before, the Apple TV was the only usable choice for a long time. Google had the Nexus Player, which in its way was one of the first companies aside from Apple to implement a standard screen reader. We saw Amazon add a screen reader to the Fire stick which, while has issues of some inaccessible content providers, still can provide speech and the use of Alexa independently to the screen reader user. Today we have a new player to the game: Roku. Roku sells several streaming products, ranging from $39 US to $129 US. These also range in features. The lowest device is the Express and Express+. It is compatible with older televisions, such as those which use composite video. The stick, which starts at USD $59, offers a thumb-drive sized device which plugs into your TV directly and runs off a Micro USB cable. Both of these products also lack a remote with voice recognition, so you will have to opt for a higher-end model if you wish to dictate or use voice search. The Roku Premier and Ultra both support 4K video playback, with the premier starting at $79. The Premier Plus, for $99, gives you other features such as a headphone jack built into the remote for listening to the TV elsewhere. Finally, Roku Ultra is $129 but is fully loaded with features such as a lost remote finder. Handy,, right? Now let's talk Accessibility. All of this year's Roku line-up, along with any Roku-driven smart televisions should get a new screen reader called Audio Guide. You can learn about the feature here. By pressing the menu key four times rapidly after the streaming device has started up, a robotic voice will provide spoken feedback for all menus and screen. Or does it? Find out whether this new TV solution lives up to your standards of what accessible should be. It's worth noting: The software update, 7.5, is not yet available for all devices or has been rolled out to them. Generally, if you have a Roku with an ethernet jack, updates are checked for during the start of setup. Wi-fi only models will require sighted assistance to connect to a network and then update, if audio guide is not present that is.

Fellow Android developer Annyce Davis joins me for a deep dive into all things Android TV! We dig into our experience with Google TV, the Nexus Player, Android TV built into a TV and more, as well as discussing our gripes with the platform, and how we'd like to see it improve going forward. Note: this episode was recorded in early March, before Android N was announced, so best keep that in mind when we discuss what we'd like to see in future versions of the platform.

Sling TV Review The idea of cutting the cord, removing your reliance on Cable or Satellite to provide the hundreds of channels you rarely watch, has been a pipe dream for many of us. Sure, for those close enough to a transmitter, an over the air antenna really helps fill the void. Netflix and Hulu are great as well. But if you like to watch a lot of TV, you're still left wanting. Until now. Sling TV may actually be the answer.   You're right, Sling TV isn't really cutting the cord. It's just swapping one TV service for another. But it does allow you to trade in a bill of $80 or $120 or more per month for only $20 a month. So you haven't cut the cord, but you've slimmed it down quite a bit. It's like the cord on Zumba or P90X.   What is Sling TV? According to the website, “Sling is the way TV should be. It's watching the season finale of your favorite show the moment it airs. It's the latest episodes of your favorite shows and hot new movies on-demand. It's ESPN, TNT, Adult Swim, and more without the cable company...With Sling TV, there's no commitment, no installation, and no crazy miscellaneous fees. Just great TV for only $20/mo. Cancel anytime online.”   Bottom line, Sling TV is Live and On Demand television over your Internet connection. Whatever your friends with Cable or Satellite are watching, you can watch at the same time. The base $20 package includes 15 channels: ESPN, ESPN2, TNT, TBS, Food Network, Travel Channel, HGTV, El Rey, Adult Swim, Maker, Disney, ABC Family, Cartoon Network, CNN, Galavision For an additional $5/mo, the optional Sports Extra package adds 9 more channels ESPNEWS, ESPNU, SEC Network, ESPN Bases Loaded, ESPN Buzzer Beater, ESPN Goal Line, Universal Sports, Univision Deportes, beIN Sports Also for an additional $5/mo, the optional Kids Extra package adds 5 more channels Disney Junior, Disney XD, Boomerang, Baby TV, Duck TV And for yet another $5/mo, you can opt for the News & Info Extra package for 4 more channels: Cooking Channel, DIY Network, Bloomberg, HLN   And it's more than just channels. You also have the freedom to watch on whatever device suits you, or is most convenient at the time. If you want to watch on a TV in your home theater or a secondary room in the house, you can put a Sling TV app on your Amazon Fire TV or Fire Stick, Roku, and coming soon, Xbox and Nexus Player. The Apple TV requires the use of the iOS app for Sling TV with Airplay. If you want to watch on the go, add the app to your iOS or Android device. Or for ultimate flexibility, just install the player on your Windows or Mac computer or laptop.   Performance The streaming quality of Sling TV is pretty good.  Coming from the company that practically invented place-shifting, you'd think they have some solid history with streaming video quality, and it shows. The video when watched over a high bandwidth connection looked great. Sharp and crisp. They support Dolby Digital 5.1 as well, so you can get some surround sound from the TV connected devices.   Content looked great on a high bandwidth connection including WiFi, only a few stutters occasionally. Things were a bit more hit or miss over 4G - but mostly hit. Our first test over 4G was terrible. Granted it was Sprint 4G, but it was really bad, nearly unwatchable. Ara, being the more methodical of the two of us demanded a recount. Testing over Verizon and AT&T 4G was actually very good. Further tests over Sprint 4G also yielded much better results.   When things were bad over 4G, video would come in sporadically but spent more time stuck on a random frame or a blank screen than actually streaming TV. It is obvious to most, but as you would expect, the quality of the stream is totally dependent on the quality of the data connection. Sling TV is more than capable of looking really good on a phone or tablet over 4G, but if your connection is spotty, the video will reflect that. No streaming technology can overcome a really bad data connection.   Then there are the limitations in the service. For one, you can only watch one thing at a time. So if you have a couple devices in your home that can connect to Sling TV, they'll all be watching the same thing - or you'll have to get multiple accounts. Which somewhat defeats the purpose of the $20/month.   Most channels do not provide the ability to pause, rewind or fast forward live television. A few others like HGTV, Food Network, Travel Channel, and a couple others do. On those channels skipping back or forwards is a bit slow since the stream needs to rebuffer. Often the skip buttons didn't work at all. It would just stutter for a second and start back up right where you were before.  You are better of dragging the timeline slider and moving forward once enough of the stream has buffered.   So while getting TV over the Internet is super cool, and super high tech, handicapping the essentials we've all come to love in the DVR is like going a decade back in time. To a time before DVRs and the freedom to stop anything for a snack break or skip commercials. Some channels allow you to watch previously aired shows as if you had recorded them. Some channels don't have that ability, probably due to the contracts they have with the owners of the syndicated shows.   The user interface is pretty easy to use, although it is a bit quirky and takes some getting used to. But the overall usage patterns are the same for any device, so once you figure it out on one, you'll have it nailed on any.  We can envision some pretty major usability changes over the next few months as they gather feedback from real users, but it isn't bad, just...different.   Conclusion All in all, the Sling TV service is a a great idea, but it may not be the next big thing quite yet.  For a secondary TV in your home that doesn't have a coax connection, or maybe for a college student, it could be really cool.  As a replacement for your Cable or Satellite service, and especially if you use a DVR, it'll probably come up a bit short at least at this point in time.   Comment from Jason: As I was an early adopter of SlingTV, I thought I was going to miss out on the free Amazon Fire Stick or $50 off Fire TV offer since I just barely used up my free 7 day trial and paid for my first month of SlingTV.  I called SlingTV and asked them what I should do to get the offer.  I asked if I should cancel my account, then asked if I should sign up with another email/credit card?  What they did for me is they just had me pay for the 3 months on my account while I was on the phone, then sent me the email with the coupon code for Amazon to go and order the free Fire Stick.

Google und Apple haben nun ihre Line-Ups für die kommenden Monate vorgestellt - Grund genug für uns, die Aufnahmepause abzubrechen und wieder einen Podcast aufzunehmen. Vorgestellt wurden insgesamt so einige Geräte: Google zeigte das Nexus 6, das Nexus 9 und mit dem Nexus Player die erste Set-Top-Box mit AndroidTV. Apple zeigte am Tag darauf das iPad Air 2 und iPad mini 3 sowie den iMac mit 5k-Retina-Display und einen neuen Mac mini. Jan, Denny und Charles haben all das gestern in etwas mehr als anderthalb Stunden auseinandergenommen und über die Geräte diskutiert - da dürfte sicher für jeden etwas dabei sein. Nach unserer Pause werden wir unser Konzept in Zukunft nochmals überdenken und den Output wahrscheinlich straffen - also weniger Formate, dafür mehr Substanz und wichtige Themen.
