Google says it is delaying the Nexus Q, a home entertainment device that was supposed to come out in July. To make up for the delay, Google is sending the gadget free to everyone who pre-ordered it. Google is not saying when the Nexus Q will available.
Google plans to sell it for $299 in the U.S. The ballshaped device is similar to Apple TV, a small box that can stream music and movies over Internet connections. The Nexus Q sends content from your own collection or from YouTube to your existing TV and speaker systems.
You control it through a separate Android phone or tablet.
