Title: Hello from Kansas
Post by: pduffer on July 08, 2012, 08:48:49 PM
Like many others, I'm anxiously awaiting arrival of my 16gig Nexus 7 tablet.  I have an Acer Iconia Tab A500 that I bought  year ago.  When I bought it I was thinking strongly about getting the 7" Galaxy Tab strictly based on the size, as I wasn't sure I wanted a 10.1" tablet.  I've enjoyed the A500, and have gotten a lot of use from the full size USB port.  (You should have seen the looks of envy I received from a room full of iPad users at a conference last month where they provided all attendees with a USB thumb drive with conference materials on it.  I popped it in my tablet and several were saying, "Is that an iPad?  How are you able to use that drive?")

I admit I fall into the camp that would prefer at least micro SD capability with the Nexus 7 (I have a 32gig card in my A500), but realistically I can have all I use on a regular basis well within the capacity of the 16gig Nexus 7.  I plan on keeping the A500, but anticipate using the new Nexus 7 most of the time.

My current usage of the tablet primarily is for Bible study/teaching, personal finances, email (personal and work), Facebook, and internet browsing.  I also use Pandora quite a bit.

Welcome to the forum pduffer. I have a 7" Flyer and a 10.1" TPT and I will have to admit I prefer 7" for portability and convenience. Hope you enjoy your N7.
