The new Nexus 7—the sharpest 7” tablet screen ever
Together with ASUS, we took what you loved about the original Nexus 7 and made it even better. The first thing you’ll notice is the sharpness of the screen: the 323 pixels packed into every inch of the screen makes it the world's highest-resolution 7-inch tablet. It’s lighter than ever, with more than nine hours of HD video playback and 10 hours of web browsing or reading. Nexus 7 now features stereo speakers and virtual surround sound from Fraunhofer (the inventors of the MP3 format), giving you rich and immersive audio.

N7 2012 is no longer for sale in US. Not here :-x

Apple and Samsung are much better in that regard.

I reckon a single CON of Google Nexus Tablets.
ALL IS FANTASTIC & SUPER,except that there is no room for microSD/SDHC increment.
We are stuck with 16GB or 32GB FIXED secondary memory capacity.

^Well there's USB OTG support. If you want more than that you've gotta look elsewhere.

^Yeah,the USB OTG support could be used for higher capacity pen-drives to be executed as extra memory or back-up.
But again that will limit the functionality of the wonderful device to some extent...as only a single device could be paired with the Nexus 7 through USB OTG support port & cable,not multiple ones.

And apple will sue it :p as it will be a rectangle

Nah they won't dare. This is Google and not Samsung. Google is also American and Apple won't win in a fair Trial and they know it. :)

I think the starting point will be Rs.18000/- at least. But still worth the money.
