Anyone got one. I tried my brother in laws Nexus 7, and I've got to say, I was very, very impressed with it. Half the price of an I Pad, just as quick, and the screen is fab.
Although the screen is only 7" it fits into your hands brilliantly, especially if you have arthritis in them like myself.
After a tablet, this is the one to have, and at around £150 it's a steal at that price. I'm gonna get one. Alanthemanc

    Good for you mate, if you tried it and liked it then why not? I'm lusting after a Samsnug Galaxy tablet (got a Galaxy phone which I like) but first I'm going to upgrade my rollater to a model that has the brake cables in the frame (I am tired of getting tangled up with shop displays) then my Kindle to a paperwhite so I can read it in bed without disturbing 'im-next-to-me. Oh to win the Lottery. :roll: DD

    PS. How's Carlos?

    Hi I have the Nexus 7 and Love it,

    Great bit of kit and easy to use.
    See this Link of the New Nexus 7 Due for release August 28th, would be worth waiting a little while.

    Well, hello stranger! How's things? I just posted on your other thread. My husband has a works-issued iPad, he doesn't like it very much. DD

    Not bad, hope your ok...... really like the Nexus 7. Apple although great build quality, rips people off too much for my liking.
    P.S. Carlos is fine..... is it really 3 years since.... wow time goes quick these days. Alanthemanc

    I've got the Samsung Galaxy tablet, I got it at the same time I upgraded my phone, also a Samsung 3 mini and I love them both, the tablet stays upstairs so that I can use it when I go to bed. I like to have a game of spider solitaire before I turn the light out.

    Highly praised on all the forums I've read and considered very good value for money.

    My son has the Nexus and loves it. I have the Samsung Galaxy tablet, as has my other son, and we both love that.

    DD - I have a kindle and now have it on my Samsung Galaxy tablet too so I don't think you need to get the paperwhite kindle for in bed if you do plan on getting the tablet. Gosh, I am so tired I'm not sure if that makes any sense, but I hope you can make out what I am trying to say.

    That makes perfect sense to me, Susisoo, and thank you, I shall bear that in mind. DD
