    Why will it be not practical for you?

    The Nexus has the same resolution - 1280x800 (but a better ppi) compared the Galaxy Note 10.1, and is lighter at 340 grams to boot. Nexus 7 is 5 core (4+1), Note is 4 core.

    The main difference - the pressure sensitive S-Pen Stylus plus apps is included with the Note. Oh, the Note has a rear camera....that's a big deal for James Cameron wannabees!

    The Nexus 7 will be half the price of the Sammy. And it already has Jelly Bean on board. The only way I would choose the Note over the Nexus is if Sammy upped the screen to 1920x1200, and included a GPS receiver.

    Oops, my bad. The Sammy Note does have a GPS receiver. Some of the earlier previews I looked at left this out. Up to date reviews with full specs show it has both GPS and A-GPS. Now it's just the lower res screen which holds it back.

    not even half the price slightly more than 1/3 of the price ~ abt rm600+ after conversion, happily received my nexus7 recently.

    Say, man, what is your tolerance for nagging? Mine is usually 3 times after which my blood pressure goes up, my eyes look funny at her and I start growling .... at nobody in particular. It usually stops there.

    It all depends as I am usually a "prompt" person in responding .... my wifey normally nags to get my attention ... if you have to nag me 3X or more, it is usually because of something that I am reluctant to do or something else is more urgent ... and I will say "I will do it but not now ... coz ... ", and she knows better to "bugger off" than continue nagging after that statement ...

    Anyway, she always WINS in the end .... got used to it by now ... but what gets her is that when I want to EAT something, I just go ahead with or without her and the kids agreeing or not ... like eating currymee at Choy Kee, I just drive there and order, they can go sort themselves out there ... don't like, they can starve or go home eat Maggi mee ...

    Oops, sounds like old me. Not anymore though. Basically, I do not like to drive far just to eat a particular dish, not so much of not catering to them. But now, we decide together.

    Because his wife took his tablet? If she has not, we will still be talking about tablets - and you may have a chance to buy it - and if you do, currymee can eat more curry mee.

    Aiyah KWChang, similarities between wives and tablets:

    1) Response to TOUCH, so don't simply touch ... esp other tablets/wives !!
    2) Switch OFF for no reasons
    3) Wrong swipe, something else happen !!
    4) Turn which way still looks the same
    5) When LOW in battery, you can forget about any meaningful responses.
    6) Always connected even when you don't want them too
    7) Full of MULTIMEDIA applications ... ... esp the speakers ...
    8) Handy ...
    9) HOT when leave on the lap for too long ...
    10) So many models in the market ...

    Since Samsung lost, does that mean they cannot sell their tablets or have to sell off cheaply?
