because its pretty useless.

I ordered one for the wifey as an anniversary present. Too bad the anniversary is tomorrow, but she knows her present will be late..

Same price as the kindle, does the same functions.. and a whole lot more.. and with a much better screen and much bigger processor. Oh yea.. and its a nexus.

I bet she bans me from tinkering with it the moment she sees the box.. lol.

Yup, back camera on a tablet have questionable usability. You're in a concert or a bar, then you bring your tablet out to take a pic? Oh come on :p

@remixfa
congrats on your anniversary! :) How many years? Good thing you didn't get her a kindle :p

13 year anniversary tomorrow. we got married on our relationship anniversary so its easy to remember. lol. 13 years together and 7 of them married. thanks :)

I have a G-Slate. I used the cameras like 3 times.. if I had to chose between HDMI output and cameras, I'd definitely pick up the HDMI (I use that quite often actually). I have a phone to tablet remote control app that works wonderfully so I can hook the tablet to the TV and use it as a media center in the bedroom.

As silly as it sounds.... I still see complete D*bags snapping photos out and about with their ever so portable iPads...... To this day I still dont understand.... 3 yr old cell phones take better pictures and are 100 times more portable than the iPad.

Yeah but dude, if they didn't use their iPad then you wouldn't know they have one.

Use your brain!!

I had a Blackberry Tablet (don't judge me, I used to be a Blackberry fan, big mistake) and to be honest, having a back camera was non-sense... now I'm waiting for my Nexus Tab, and I know it will be just amazing...

VAT = Value Added Tangina

I don't think it's vat because other gadgets here are priced about the same in other countries. I think it's the markup of the merchant taking advantage of the situation.
