As you would expect, the Play Store is the primary source of apps for Googlebooks, and there will be some limits on sideloading. Google has confirmed to Ars that Googlebooks will enforce developer verification requirements for apps similar to Android phones.
OK, I'm a little behind the latest in terms of what's going on in Android land. Could somebody who's more up to date say what the current state of side-loading is? I mean specifically when you have physical access, a USB cable connected, and using ADB or whatever.
I honestly can’t tell if it’s a clunky tablet, or an incompetent computer. Maybe both?
But wow, NINE HUNDRED dollars for a weird hybrid that runs freaking ANDROID? Wow. Just wow. Now that is a tremendously stupid idea if I ever saw one.
You can get a Neo straight from Apple for $699 and that thing runs full-blown macOS (and is most certainly of a much better build than any of these could ever dream of being).
I can already picture the Googlebook tombstone in the ever-growing Google graveyard.
