When the frack will this be available tax free?

Oh well. I will just wait on the Nexus 10 2nd gen coming out in a few months.

I bought one around New Years, and the tablet is really nice -- I especially liked the screen resolution. It is my first tablet and I like using browsers and the reading applications. I also like the GPS a lot.
I figured it's not really all that expensive because: 1. My existing GPS unit Garmin Streetpilot 2610 is about 12yrs old (still works), A replacement will easily cost say $80. As long as I plan the trip and download offline map, can easily use Nexus 10 as "new" GPS (and stop at McD or free WiFi for offline map updates) 2. I have a Sandisk Clip (mp3 player) probably 4-5 yrs old. cost about $30. This thing holds all my MP3 or play my offline radio podcasts 3. Portable reader (can't get anything decent for under $150 new) 4. A ultra-portable laptop of any decent spec will cost $200 easily, and it's not as portable as Nexus10. (screen resolution / portability / ease of content consumption) Given the freedom to "detach" from a desktop or a dedicated laptop, like taking a recipe to the kitchen, while listening to internet radio or scanner radio applications, able to check stocks all throughout the day, it has become basically a portable "Smart Newspaper". I now also have a decent device to read the over 5000 free Amazon books I accumulated last year or read financial filings (10-K, 10-Q's)I don't think anyone will be getting out of paying tax or shipping for a while, so it's one question of how long do you want to wait before you get a decent device you'll be happy with (paying a reasonable price). This was enough for me to jump and get one. |

This is a great device. Better PPI than the Ipad 3 and 4. For those who say the Nexus 10 v. 2 will come out soon....I highly doubt it. I'd rather have this over an Ipad 4 and day, even if the Nexus 10 was more expensive. |

are there any books that are worth reading at all? I got a few free books as well but they're all complete crap so far, so i just stopped trying. do you eat poop?
I like to swim in it |

I browsed through the Free Kindle top 100, then I go back to the Kindle Books navigation category, into subjects, (Sci-Fi, Cooking, Gardening, Fiction, etc) Each of those has its own Top-100 category.
I end up grabbing about 5-10 books a day just browsing. and you can also add the Top 100 into your RSS reader, so you end up getting at least 2-3 free books (just from browsing the Top 100 each day in each category), so over the course of a year, you'll easily get a few thousand free books. http://www.amazon.com/Best-Seller.../157028011 This link above take you to "Fiction (top 100), now look to the left on the "Kindle eBooks", and it'll take you to all the different categories, and you can start your collection too. |
