Plan on getting the $199 Google Android Nexus 7 Tablet?

With a stunning 7" display, powerful quad-core processor and all day battery life, Nexus 7 was built to bring you the best of Google in a slim, portable package that fits perfectly in your hand.

Possibly, I might get it since it has a Quad-Core CPU, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of storage, a front camera, nice 7 inch screen, and the latest version of Google Android 4.1 Jellybean for 199 USD which are all the things I want in a budget tablet.

The voice search, and user interface looks pretty nice.

Nope. I've done my research and although I am very impressed with the improvements they've made, I need my expandable memory. I simply wont consider a device without it and I don't care how much of an improvement it is in both software and features. Without the ability to put in an sd card, for me, it simply isn't worth it.

How does this compare to the iPad?

The Nexus 7 is pretty fast, and easy to use based on videos I seen, but the iPad has a bigger screen which also has a higher resolution, and the iPad probably has more iOS exclusive apps.

I doubt they'll be all that exclusive in the future, it would br a no brainer for a developer to release their apps on both major platforms.

If an Android user thinks that a particular app is worth the money, they will buy it. Even if we are very well aware of the fact that we'd end up paying about 300% or more than what iOS users spend on the same app.

It's hard to say that an App won't be an exclusive in the future since Apple, Google, or Windows Phone might pay or buy the app company to keep the app an exclusive app for iOS, Android, or Windows Phone since exclusive apps on iOS, Android, and Windows Phone can lead to higher Tablet and Smartphone sales for them like console exclusive video games like how Nintendo makes Mario an Exclusive Nintendo game, Halo being an exclusive Microsoft game, and Gran Tourismo being exclusively Sony game.

Plus, the developer might not want to upset their main fan base. I heard a lot of iOS Instagram users are mad that Instagram was release for Android, and how it might mess up Instagram's culture with picture posting from Android users. The same goes for games like a lot of Final Fantasy fans where upset when FF was release for the Xbox 360, and is is not a PS3 exclusive anymore.

I think if Infinity Blade, and other iOS games got release for Android, and Windows Phone, iOS fans might get mad at the developer.
