I bought a Google Nexus 7 2nd gen a couple of years ago, just to see if the hype was about something real.
I found almost nothing of interest to do with it, so it sat in a drawer for the most part. Every once in a while I would open it up and check the app store, and I finally found something really useful. Manage Engine has a free Wifi analyzer/surveyor that is coming in very handy for mapping our my environment. I've seen several Wifi analyzers, but this is the first free one that I've found that will actually let me import a jpg/gif/png of a floor plan and generate a heat map. The process is tedious, of course, but it's helping me situate the new Ruckus R600 WAPs that I'm using to replace our aging Cisco 1240AGs. Just one problem - if I try to save the generated map back to the local gallery, it generates a zero-length file, but it emails the map(s) just fine. Another thing that really isn't its fault is that it doesn't work well using my finger instead of a stylus. Such is life - I made it work. All in all, I'm very happy. Kurt
