On the Google website, Nexus 10 is listed as having Gorilla Glass by Corning, this is not listed for the G Pad 8.3. Gorilla glass sounds like a good thing, is it really necessary? I have been to a BestBuy, they have not had any Nexus 10 for over a month and 1/2. None in any Staples around here...

"Hope this helps." Immensely. "Nexus 10 is a great device. It is older, not as fast as the G Pad " I would more-than-likely not notice the difference. As to the camera, I have a nice camera. Tablet should be a tablet. Our tv is a smart-tv, so may be nice if I could use Chromecast on it...

As a first time tablet purchaser, with no cellphone to link to, I have been waiting for the Nexus 10 2 to come out. I just read about the GPad 8.3 and believe this may work for me. Then I read about the GPE edition and that it has less "stuff" on it to slow it down. As I need this tablet to be...
