Why, do some covers, of course. It is already making a margin on the slates that Google sells at cost, starting at $199, so why not throw in some margin on accompanying accessories for a good measure.
Asus announced a number of covers for the Google Nexus 7 on Twitter, because that's what you do nowadays, instead of using that old people's social network Facebook, and the covers are all over the rainbow span when it comes to coloring.
Considering the $200 tablet tag these might mostly serve to tell one slate from another in the family, rather than some coveted protection, but no price is announced yet. The catchphrase Asus used? "We've got things covered".
