If you believe there is a place for a 7-inch tablet in your life and personally we're somewhat divided on that here at Retrevo, and if rumors of an Apple iPad Mini turn out to be true ......THEN...... at the moment, it looks like you're going to have to decide between iOS and Android. If apps are the deciding factor, Apple should continue to offer many more "tablet" apps than Android. If it's the Google ecosystem with apps like Google Now and products like Google TV......THEN..... the Nexus or perhaps another vendor like Samsung's next-gen mini-tablet would be the way to go. However, if a $300 iPad Mini turns up, it's going to be difficult to resist it.

Just trying to help.....this should be worth a free Nexus 7. Then again maybe not. Regardless, I would like the Nexus 7 more than the iPad Mini.
