They reported earlier today that you have a large dong.

Too big. That’s not the market they’re shooting for right now.

Reports I read stated that the Nexus was being built at a low profit margin as it is so I don’t see a better spec at a lower price being something to hope for. At $250 I consider mine to be an excellent value as it is and way better than the Crapple iPad at any price.

“…Barnes and Noble and Amazon all launched new HD tablets that put the N7′s to shame.” I’ve seen their displays and in my opinion they do not put the Nexus display to shame at all.

Move the current N7 down to that price range, and introduce the N7.1 (we will call it version nutella just for the hell of it). Have the N7.1 feature a better screen and rear facing camera support, and bundle in a few extra “goodies” to entice the buyer.

I want a nexus like a xoom, with ports and expandable memory, around 10″ and some type of keyboard stock or third party. I’m stiil deciding between a xoom, an N7, or a new kindle for my parents. They watch a lot of vids on the net so I need it to have ICS cause i don’t know if Flash works on an N7 with JB or a way to put it on. Saving up for one of these, wish i could make a poll in this disqus column.

True, but it’s the same if you used tethering from your phone (minus the initial $10 charge).

I’m not a tablet person, but some people do like to bring them around on 4G. Though if the screen is nice enough, I could end up considering mounting this in my car as a carputer…

Although i would love this, i fear there would be too much compromise on the hardware that would slow the tablet down. JB is fatastic, but no amount of butter can smooth out slow hardware. Make a 9 inch tablet and charge around 300 for it. Then i will buy the nexus brand!

Google sure is going for the bargain bin market. A cheap product results in a cheap experience.

I think jak_341 was referring to the existing $80-$120 tablets out there like the Coby, Pandigital, etc. that don’t give the user a good Android experience, thereby tarnishing the Android name in general. The Nexus 7 is a small, premium device at a great price.

They sell things at Best Buy? I thought it was just an Amazon show room.

I love my wifi Xoom with a passion that borders on obsession but yeah, I’m thinking it’s time to start looking at a smaller device for ease of transportation.
