The OnePlus One is what, $299 and $349, and it has a large screen. That's an amazing off-contract price for a phone that is pretty solid. Sure, there were hardware faults from cutting costs, but it was impressive how they got that device to that price. The Nexus device having an enormous screen and a low price is quite feasible if Google is going to subsidize it like every other Nexus. We'll see what happens.
Looks like just a rebrand of the IPTV box they were developing ages ago. But FFS, no ethernet?Yeah it seems like a Chromebox used as a HTPC, which is what I have been advocating for months.
Intel inside on that is VERY interesting.

Also, how does this coexist with Android TV? Does it? Does anyone at Google care about coherence, or are they just throwing shit at the wall?

OK.I think in the blog post it said this is the first Android TV device. It is a lot like previous efforts, but even Intel has come a long way since then.
Multiple users for phones. If you forget your phone, you still can call any of your friends (or access any of your messages, photos etc.) by simply logging into another Android phone running Lollipop. Also perfect for families who want to share a phone, but not their stuff.
Guest user for phones and tablets means you can lend your device and not your stuff.
Screen pinning: pin your screen so another user can access just that content without messing with your other stuff.
lol@starting at 649
Ouch. I guess that puts me out of the running, geez. Many people will be happy about a premium Nexus though.
N6 is 649. I haven't seen anything conclusive about the N9 though.

That instantly takes 1/2 of the people who wanted to buy one out of the picture, more than likely.
where you getting this?16 GB and $399? LTE version $599? Seriously, Google?
where you getting this?
16/32 to me doesn't make sense on a tablet where media consumption is king. If the phone is 32/64gb, why not the tablet?

16GB $399, 32GB $479, 32GB + LTE $599
Yeah but the phone is 32gb/64gb. I know about the whole cloud thing, but even on the iPad you can buy a 128gb iPad and it has been that way for a long time.The pricing and configurations are all over the web now. I posted a comparison to iPad Air above.
Google and Apple would like users to make use of cloud storage and streaming as much as possible with their tablets, and that is why they do not include expandable storage and only include 16GB storage as base options. Unfortunately it is what it is.
