I don't believe so. You have to buy one that supports it.
Here's a hardware compatibility list on XDA: External Storage Device Compatibility Review - xda-developers
There's a guy selling them on CL for $15 lol what a rip but I might have no choice. Going to see if his is compatible.

Ya, sorry... I meant the weather widget. I've been using The Weather Network on my SGS, but it sucks on a tablet. |

I preordered right after they announced it at I/O and even though I have one now I'm kind of dissapointed at how Google handled their pre orders.
Just got this email: Quote:

Now I'm wondering if I'll have to pay duties when it arrives next week. Quote:

If people are still looking around for them locally, I bought my 16gig one at the Futureshop on Broadway and Burrard on Monday. On Sunday I dropped by and the moron there never even heard of a Nexus tablet. On Monday, 9 of them came in and I grabbed one (4 were sold while I was there at 4pm). By 7pm, my friend got the last one there.
In their system, the Coquitlam location had 9 as well and my friend said they would not sell to him on Monday because they're not allowed to yet. Not sure when/if they started selling them but they seemed to have lots a few days ago.

Did you guys get charged once they shipped it or once they confirmed your preorder?

Anybody try the app Tablet Talk with their phone + Nexus 7?
I find it works extremely well for forwarding texts from your phone to tablet.

Not liking the fact that there's nothing out there than can run MKV files with DTS audio. |
