Another great tablet coming soon - Google Nexus 7

If you have ever thought to buy a Kindle Fire, you should consider Google Nexus 7 now. Another new tablet coming out soon. The price is relative cheap. I bet it will be the cheapest tablet compare to others in the same category. Google has officially introduced the Nexus 7 manufacture by ASUS. The price is $199 USD for the 8GB and $249 USD for the 16GB. If you live in Canada, too bad you need to pay  $209CAD for the 8GB and $259CAD for the 16GB.  Another good thing with Nexus 7, when you buy one, Google will give you a $25 gift card to spend at Google Play Store and the Transformers Dark of the Moon movie, Borne Dominion book. Google Nexus 7 is the first Google device running Android 4.1 - Jellybean. Jellybean is the improvement of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. You won't see a big change visually, but you will see the improvement of the speed. The Google Nexus 7 will official come out in mid-July. We need to wait for 2-3 weeks. As a low end tablet, I think $209 is worth to give it a try.
