Just for the mere NON-fun of it, I dropped my Nexus tablet and the road impacted on 1 corner. The tuff glass splintered and dropped off a couple of minor chips. So - it's a cosmetic damage rather than a full-on failure.
I was wondering - car windscreen repair shops tout some sort epoxy(?) filler to gloss out the damage. What is it? Where would one get it? Would it work?

There's probably not enough in the kit to do the job. It's also formulated to have the same index of refraction as the plastic anti-shatter windshield sandwitch, and may not be the same as just glass.
Google for "optical clear epoxy": etc...
You may want to test the glue on something else before attacking your Nexus tabet. Some glues shrink, some don't quite harden, other aren't good for gap filling, etc. With epoxy, you have one chance to get it right or you're left with a mess. Also, be sure to clean the glass with MEK before gluing.
The word "impact" -- as verb or noun -- is one of the most-vapid in English. It hardly ever is the best choice to express the idea of hitting or influencing.
Or hit, or banged into, or landed on, or crashed into, etc, etc, etc.

Yep. That has a big impact on ones vocabulary.

Thanks Jeff. Seem to have a missing "Eternal_september" posting but no matter.
