Google announces the Nexus Q, a new social streaming media player

Move over Google TV — there’s a new set-top Google media player in town. Meet the spherical Nexus Q, introduced at today’s Google I/O 2012 media event.

Set to retail for $299, the Nexus Q is a cloud-based multimedia device. It will allow you to listen to music and watch YouTube clips in a social manner, letting you easily share playlists and content with your friends and other devices.

The Nexus Q will run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and come with 16GB of internal storage. Wifi and Bluetooth will be built in, as will a capacitive touch sensor, allowing you to mute audio simply by touching the sphere.
