All the news or blogs i have seen announcing release of nexus 7 in India dating to september. What happened to it? When is it finally getting released?

Asus is selling all the tablets it can produce... Even most European countries are still waiting for the Nexus 7... So, India is way down on Asus priorities right now...

As usual India way down the priority list.:evil:....Poor chaps did not estimate the rush.

But yes may be they pre-planned a 3G device as Wi-Fi only are virtually useless hence the late...:wink:

Conspiracy theory: May be Samsung is holding up launch(in talks with Google) as its poor Galaxy tab sales will get cannibalized.:wwe:

That's quite obvious...that's why i said Samsung is in talks with Google.
In more simpler terms Samsung asks Google to withhold Asus's manufactured Nexus tab launch as it will cannibalize Galaxy Tab sales..

@Zangetsu Yes. Even I read many articles about its availability at Croma store. Finally that tab is here :)
