Does anyone know where I can play with the Nexus 7 device at? If only they would hurry up with the Google stores...
I have played around with my neighbor's samsung 7" tablet and it's DECENT, but he also has an ipad and I like the 10 inch better than 7 inch. HOWEVER, the 7 inch doesn't bug me at all, its just much easier (less zooming and such) to web browse on a 10 inch screen. And if I buy it from a store I'd be able to return it yes? I have heard a lot of issues with the Nexus 7 devices.Have you test-driven a 7" tablet? I really like mine, but while it's infinitely easier to do web browsing than on a phone, it's a far cry from a 10" tablet.
Before buying something you can't return (and buying used is almost certainly going to be that), make sure you can live with the 7" form factor. I much prefer my 7 (and Android) to the iPad Mini, but I have to admit that that extra inch makes a nice difference. I'm not suggesting the iPad (esp given pricing), I'm just saying that the difference may be more than you imagine.
It is 50-50
Some Nexus may have error at the moment, I do not know what will in next some months. Android free app are very boring vs apple. I used both Ipad 2 and Nexus 7.
You should buy a silicon case + screen protector as soon as possible. It is not easy to be broken but some keys in the same pocket can damage.
It is very good for social app and google services, not so much in gaming.
Do the cheap one I see on Amazon work alright and how does that work with games such as fp shooters?

I've done some research and the only good one (at least for me) was this one: SlimBook So when I get a Nexus 7 this will be the case I will get. Just throwing it out there in case others are looking for a case.
You should get the Slimline by Poetic instead. Its a great case and I've been using it since I bought my N7. Plus, Poetic's customer service is great.
As for the Nexus 7, it will fulfill all your needs you mentioned. It all depends if you prefer a larger screen or not. I have to admit, when I watch movies while laying down, my arms do get tired holding the N7 up.
There is not one thing I haven't done on my N7. I've gamed, YouTube, Facebook, browse web, type papers, read news, dropped it, Netflix, movies, music, take pics, record videos, etc. Its great.
Accessories wise, what do you plan to do?
Basic things would be a case and a dock.
If you plan on traveling, get another case with more protection, get a OTG cable, external hard drive for movies and such.
That's all you pretty much need.
Good luck and enjoy!
I would also get an OTG cable

I really like this. But I don't like how it makes it twice as big, not a big deal but still lol. And does it have sleep/wake features?I got this case, it is a Roo case.

I bought this SupCase from Amazon. It looks almost identical, has the smart-cover feature, saves you 10 bucks and also has free 2 day shipping if you are a Prime member.I've done some research and the only good one (at least for me) was this one: SlimBook So when I get a Nexus 7 this will be the case I will get.
