Google's Vic Gundotra is
having a nice time trying out some new hardware during his beach vacation. At
least that's the view from his profile on Google+,
where he posted two pictures taken with something called the "Nexus
10."
There
currently is no product with that name, but it's been rumored that Google will introduce a new Nexus tablet at
the company's event on Monday morning. Also, Korean site Seeko on Thursday
posted images of what appears to be a manual for the tablet.
The
photos Gundotra posted have a resolution of 2,048 x 1,536
(3.1 megapixels), but that's simply the maximum resolution for photos uploaded
to Google+ via the service's instant upload, and not necessarily the resolution
of the camera on board the device.
This isn't the first time
Gundotra — Google's senior vice president of engineering who and the key
executive behind Google+ — has tipped a new product or service on his Google+
feed. Earlier this month he posted a photo taken with Snapseed, an app made by
Nik software, which Google acquired last month. But the Snapseed app for iOS
didn't have the ability to export to Google+. Sure enough, an Android preview
appeared last week (and has been taken down).
At
Google's Monday event, the company is expected to reveal the Nexus 10 tablet —
a larger version of its Nexus 7
tablet — along with Android 4.2
"Key Lime Pie" software. There may also be a new Nexus smartphone
made by LG.
