Picked up a 16gb N7-13 on Saturday. I have a 12 model as well, and the biggest thing I notice so far is the increased speed/responsiveness. Very nice. :) However, I took a drive yesterday and pre-loaded some maps, and it never did find GPS signal. Same today, just says "searching for GPS" when I view the notification area. I've turned it off & back on in the settings, and rebooted the device. Hoping not to have to do a full reset or return/exchange it.

*edit*
Ooops, already a thread for this issue: http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-nexus-7-tablet-2013/300566-gps-problems-nexus-7-2013-a.html
