    Default What, no Nexus 7 thread?

    Best 7" tablet, perhaps the best Android tablet yet, and hands down the best piece of tech you can get for $200.

    Only drawback for me (apart from no microSD) is no Google Play outside North America, but as usual there's a way around that. Anybody thinking of getting one?

    I had a friend coming to Jamaica 2wks ago and wanted him to take the nexus 7 16 gb for me. However it was out of stock and as i am not going to ship it, I could wait for it to be jn stock again. i got the galaxt tab 2 instead. Pretty decent and memory is expandable.
    Isn't it a marvelous thing? The mystery of the mind?

    No sd card, no rear camera and no 3G service...

    I will stick with my Samsung galaxy 7 plus GT-P6200L.

    If it meet you need then you should get the nexus 7, for that price it is a steal.

    no memory card is no issue ....all u need is a micro usb to usb cable.....costs $3

    then root device


    can connect to flash drive or card reader.....maybe even phone

    too much emphasis on space....dropbox or box plus email and internal memory


    had mine 2 weeks now
    the only major issue for me is the lack of flash support, its annoying
    gonna c if i can find a browser to sideload flash......

    ^Space isn't an issue for me, the lack of cellular data is a HUGE drawback for me

    How do you find it so far compared to other tabs like the Samsung?

    And does anyone know if digicel has any mobile 4G (not wimax) 'mifi' devices yet?
