The Nexus 7 has no HDMI output. So, no, it couldn't do all that.
Also, your point #1 reminds me of a Steve Jobs quote, regarding the Apple I (a kit computer):
"It was very clear to me that while there were a bunch of hardware hobbyists that could assemble their own computers, or at least take our board and add the transformers for the power supply and the case the keyboard and go get the rest of the stuff. For every one of those there were a thousand people that couldn't do that, but wanted to mess around with programming - software hobbyists. And so my dream for the Apple 2 was to sell the first real packaged computer."
Yes, you don't have any interest in this machine. And maybe I don't; I still run Linux on the desktop, after all. But there are apparently a lot of people who are voting with their wallets they they want this experience without having to jury-rig anything.
- gavanwoolery 14y agoGood points all...there might be another way to rig a Nexus 7 (Wi-Di? I don't know...). People do vote with their wallets, but unfortunately on the "wrong" things sometimes (not that this is necessarily the case, but if you look at campaigns like YogVentures, it seems a bit foolish to give $500,000 to a team with little/no proven development experience). My only concern is that I feel many companies will be giving Kickstarter-funding a bad name when they can't live up to their promises.
