I have an iPad and several Android devices. I consider myself an android guy but I appreciate what an iOS device can offer. I frequent forums in both domains and on each one is threads like this one. "iPads beats android!" "android out-does Apple"....why can people just see BOTH OS's offer so much...we need to embrace them and realize each domain offers something different. I am constantly switching between both of them....AND also my Windows 8 machine! Neither one is "better" then the other....each offers something useful and each has it's faults...

I've downloaded AppleTVMedia and it recognises my Apple TV but, at the moment, that's as far as I've got. I can't get it to stream BBC iPlayer or Spotify (I think another app is need for this). 
A bit more research needed.

Racey I'm just curious what motivated you to buy android. You seem to be pretty brand loyal to apple so I'm just curious what the appeal was to you. Any input?

My N7 is great outdoors! Way better than any other tablet I've had. I sell RV's and campers and keep all my information on my tablet and have had no problems out side.

I think you will be disappointed if you expect to use the Nexus 7 in direct sunlight and I would add that I have never seen a "Color" tablet that was readable in direct sunlight unless you count the failed Adam by Notion Ink which had a switchable display. I am like BFM and assume you are referring to the traditional Kindle eReader which has basically a B/W display.
