I'm pretty sure its the iCade which is designed for the iPad II and not the Nexus. Although it is Bluetooth so a Nexus 10 might work or the 7 in landscape but put in the iPad portrait slot.

http://www.amazon.com/ION-iCade-Arcade-Cabinet-iPad/dp/B004YC4NH6/ref=dp_ob_title_ce

Edit: After going back to the OP of the pic it looks like the poster made a plinth to fit the smaller Nexus into the standard iPad portrait slot. Nice work there as I didn't even notice the plinth.
[Nexus 7 General] Beorg:
I use it for reading journals and news, some light gaming, watching TV shows, controlling my htpc and seedbox, video chatting Web browsing, following some obscure YouTube channels.

It is definitely getting less use these days since I got my nexus 4, but it's still a fun gadget to have and I love its portability.
[Nexus 7 General] rogermorse:
that's why i don't think it's the ipad one. I think it is original for nexus. also the iCade has a different artwork and ok, the coin slot wasn't picture in the first picture of amazon, but in the other ones yes so not really sure.

Best would be that who posted the pic could reply here...i think i'm going to send a private message. I know i would never use that thing more than once in a month :) but having it on the desk is just perfect, even only as a nexus stand ^___^

[Nexus 7 General] insanity213:
For all you guys asking about the icade setup... I found it for half price @ best buy and its the i-device model. All in all, its just a bluetooth keyboard with one twist - it sends an event when you press the button as well as when you release the button. The app USB/BT joystick center written by poke64738 had preconfigured profile that allowed this controller to work with Mame and other emulators. Takes a bit of patience to set up buttons and what not, but its pretty sweet.

The only problem is since I installed 4.2.1 it seems to have broken the USB/BT app. The icade and my wiimotes dont work anymore. Seems to be a bug with bluetooth in the new version of Android. I'm not sure if the author has fixed it yet or not, I honestly haven't messed with the thing in a month or so now.

Hardware wise I did no modifications to the cabinet whatsoever.
[Nexus 7 General] TheAtheistReverend:
Mainly using it to look cool :p but Crackle works well too. Hoping to try skype on it soon, which I hear works well, and I would LOVE to try some light gaming with a real controller.

How difficult is it to set up a Bluetooth PS3 controller with the N7? Does it matter what kind of controller I get (does it have to be OEM)?

I use mine for reading books, watching youtube videos, playing games and other things that just seem better on a 7" screen over a 4.x" screen...though now that I have my nexus 4 I have a hard time using the nexus 7 since the nexus 4 is my new toy...although I had lost my nexus s for like a week or so before I got my N4 so I was using my nexus 7 as a phone with groove ip and google voice so it is a good back up device if you loose your phone as well. With its better battery life it is still better for playing games on than the phone is though...even if my phone has a faster processor and more ram.
[Nexus 7 General] JakeAnthraX:

Nowadays, the N7 plays an huge part in my life.

I'm using it as my digital version of university books (always present at my classes), reading comic books/manga and normal books, also using it (thanks to XBMC) as my mini media center, as my facebook checker and "chatter", portable gaming device, as my GPS device (driving and geocaching), to check weather, news, schedule, email, youtube, even use sometimes to listen to music and "skyping" with friends!!!

The Nexus 7 is a dream come true IMHO for any Retro Gaming / Arcade / Pinball fan ... I mainly use it to play MAME ROMs (mame4all) , N64 (N64oid) ROMs, SCUMMVM Games or Pinball Games (Pinball Arcade and Zen Pinball HD are both awesome simulations!). Plan to get an icade, too. Have too look for Amiga 500 and Commodore 64 emulators too.

Google Earth is also VERY cool if you have a fast connection - have you tried looking at Venice for example? Just Beautiful.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ak700:
I came from the Galaxy Apollo. It was the first android device from Samsung. I has upgraded since then. The Nexus 4 is massive upgrade from me. From the screen size to performance everything is massive. But the experience with Nexus 4 wasn't all that good. I ordered it on Nov 27th and was the first to receive it. It turned out that the ear piece didn't work. RMA'd it. The RMA had a slight light bleed. I didn't want to go through the RMA process again so I took the light bleeded Nexus 4. Other than it, the phone works fine and is amazing. The screen is the biggest plus point and now I prefer to read stuff on it rather than my monitor. I would say that you should buy it from a store.

Not really a noon, but seem to be either drawing a blank and getting conflicting comments and information!

So, in brief, I'm running stock Samsung jelly bean 4.1.1( Taiwan version). And it works fine.

I want to root so i can get cm 10.1 for that aosp feel.

I know that Macs use heimdall (got that) and i also understand i need to be on cwm recovery, but I'm struggling to find instructions as to how to actually root!

Which files do i need ( being on stock jelly bean), to use for heimdall in order to be able to flash cm10.1?

I do not have access to a windows computer, so unfortunately can't use Odin,

If anyone can point me in the right direction, id be very grateful.

I like to contribute comments for those in need on the forums.... and i now cone cap in hand asking for assistance
