Re: Google Nexus 7

Chuck,

I just discovered it Saturday Night when I went to use it.  Was less than
thrilled. I've got to find the contract to see what it says.  They say it
only worked "because of a fluke". Of course, I say "It was turned on, now
it is turned off...you made a decision".

But re the Nexus 7, it looks very cool!  And a low price to boot.  My guess
is that both the Kindle Fire and B&N Nook are going to have to do something
quickly.  No way I'd buy either one when the Nexus 7 is the same price.

I do love the 7" form factor.  Big enough to do most anything, but small
enough to always carry.

And not having the 3g/4g is no big deal with smart phone mobile hot spots
(except for TMobile now).  And there is a lot of free wifi now days. When I
couldn't get my hotspot working, I scanned and hooked into IUPUI's public
wifi.  Starbucks & Barnes & Noble both have free wifi.  Heck, even my gas
station has it!

Even paying for mobil hotspot is better than paying for an extra line.

Wonder if I could talk my wife into a Fire (Mine) and then I could get a
Nexus 7!!!
