Since that's just not enough of a rumor bomb, the talkative "people familiar with the matter" also claim a wristwatch and followup to its "postponed (http://www.engadget.com/2012/07/31/google-postponing-nexus-q-launch-to-make-it-better/)" Nexus Q (http://www.engadget.com/2012/07/06/google-nexus-q-review/) project are on the way. If you believe the rumors, its reason for jumping into all these categories is to beat products Apple is reportedly (http://www.engadget.com/2013/02/13/bloomberg-apple-watch-rumor/) developing in the same categories, with at least one of them launching this fall. Finally, the leaks indicate Google's next major Android update will be "tailored to low-cost devices in developing countries."

Rockchip continues to bring some cool features to Android tablets and MiniPC devices based on their processor. A few months ago, they offered a remote control application that can be run from any Android device to control a Rockchip based MiniPC. The server part of the application is already included in most Rockchip MiniPC devices while the remote client end is a regular application that can be installed on any Android device (phone, tablet) .

The new feature added to their latest RKRemoteControl version 2.0 is a virtual button mapping tool to control games on a MiniPC from a remote Android phone or tablet. The mapping system works only on games designed with onscreen controls, the offered virtual commands consist of: 3 direction sticks (L, R and another one) with the addition of 8 buttons: A, B, C, D, W, X, Y and Z.
