Right... which is the Nexus tablet. Look at the press package. There's an item under there titled 'The new remote...' And they show a picture of the Nexus, and talk about the fact that the tablet will serve as your remote.
Now, to be fair, it doesn't say that they DON'T allow for a more traditional (albeit blue tooth) remote as well. That's one of those details that aren't there that I was talking about. But it's clear in the package that they're banking on you using the tablet as the remote.
I don't have an issue with that, for the most part, but many many consumers would. There's simply no wide acceptance for such a remote just yet. Even the FiOS remote android app that I now have on my phone - it's very cool, and works really well... but I can't say I'd be thrilled if Verizon told me that the only remote option available to me would be that app. That's what it SEEMS like Google is saying, but I don't know. Like I said - all in the execution.
