Reasons why you want your Nexus 7 NOW

[Scott99]

Though I'm a tech geek, usually I can wait for the release of something I preorder. Hell, I've never even purchased my iPhones on any of the launch dates, so I do have patience. That being said, for personal reasons, I wish I had it already. I'm going on a cruise for a week, July 16th to July 23rd. I'll be bringing my Kindle Fire, which has all of my books and some cool games and movies, but man it would have been fun to have the Nexus 7 along for the ride with some games optimized for its Tegra 3 chip (especially Dead Trigger). And then the Kindle App for my books and some movies.

Obviously I'm being a greedy little tech geek, but do some of you have reasons why you'd love to have your Nexus 7 right now ?

I'm looking forward to using it for reading books on.  I've just learnt that I can store all my books in mobi format in my drop box account and access them through my Galaxy S3 whenever I want to read them by moving them to my kindle folder.  I'm assuming that I will be able to do the same when my Nexus 7 arrives.

That is reason enough for me. Scott99 needs his Nexus 7 for a cruise delivered by the 13th for his 16th departure, so IMHO, Google needs to start shipping the 9th of July. So, +1 or +1 and comment if you support Scott99's claim for delivery by the 13th...

Hope you are not planning on using wifi on your cruise, it is very expensive and slow.

I want it now.  My car needs it's 15k tune up and I'm waiting until I get my N7 so I can wait/play at the autoshop.

7 will be my first tablet... seems tempting enough. Going into hospital in next few days for horrific procedure and it would be great to have it during recovery........
