Nexus 7 and all android tablets are really cheap products. They don't have anything over iPad. I am going to see tomorrow if the surface has anything over the iPad. I don't think it will wrt apps etc - but just hardware - does it have it? That is the main q. If it has it, it will be a runaway hit. Android tablets are a real joke. Surface could turn out to be one too...

It certainly won't take long for us all to find out that people won't pay $329, when an excellent product, one that is equivalent in features that matters most to the majority of consumers, costs $199. Really? Then I suppose that since the Nexus was introduced, nobody who knew about it paid more than five hundred bucks for an iPad, either. I don't think you have a proper handle on "features that matters most to a majority of consumers." I'm not knocking the Nexus 7. It looks like a fine piece of hardware. And Google has one of the biggest and most often visited showrooms in the world, and yet the majority of consumers have not bought the Nexus 7 when they could instead buy a more expensive Apple product.
