I will probably use it for all of the above.  I do use my 10" tab a lot, but this one will be the perfect size to "grab and go" when I leave the house.

Speed, form, and function at a killer price, what more can you ask for?

IDK, because I've never owned a tablet before.  I doubt I'll do much web surfing w/a 7" screen & no keyboard.

I might run a road map/gps app, although I own gpses for each car, & 7" is a big gps.

My intentions are to run Sky Safari Pro (an astronomy app), iBird (a bird identification app) and an OBD-2 data logging app.

Web surfing, book reading, netflix mainly. The odd game.

Mainly reading on mine and the occasional movie. The size of the Nexus 7 will be perfect for this. My only concern is the battery life.

I had been planning to use it just for e-reading, and movie-watching, and Google News. But I have found the email and calendar syncing so useful at work that it's rapidly becoming a productivity tool.  At last I can see my personal calendar and my work calendar in one interface, so I can stop putting my personal appointments in my workplace calendar. Since I leave my workplace calendar open for all in the company to see, this restores a good measure of privacy. Battery life supports taking it to meetings. Have free wifi in the office complex, so works well for me.

Pretty much everything I use my phone for now except making calls.  It's going to replace my e-reader most of the time and my laptop for streaming MLB games when I'm traveling.  I'll still use the laptop at the house as I can connect it to my TV with a HDMI cable.
