Review on Nexus 7 by Google ASUS (2012) Tablet - 7-Inch, 8 GB, Brown (ASUS-1B08) by George Utley

Google did a good job here. It's only $50 more than the Fire, but you get a lot more. The keyboard is much more responsive and holds the wireless signal better. I like both, but I have to say I like the Nexus better. If you're on the fence, go for this one. You can still read Kindle books on it, just install Kindle for Android. I don't have an iPad so can't compare but maybe I just like the larger size. Not worth that many bucks for a little extra screen real estate. Also, Apple will soon release a smaller iPad to compete because people like that size. I highly recommend the Nexus.
