I brought my Galaxy Nexus and Kindle Fire to Asia last month after my Galaxy Tab 10.1 died on me the day of the trip. Within 2 days into the trip in Hong Kong, the Nexus stopped charging itself, leaving me with only the Kindle Fire for the remainder of the trip. Although it was a mediocre email machine due to typical android lag in typing, it survived the trip, and let me read web pages reliably. Ironically, the Galaxy Nexus magically resurrected itself once plugged into a US outlet. Go figure... I noticed that the Samsung Note with its 5.3" screen is really popular in Hong Kong and Vietnam. This makes me think the 7" pad is going to be a real market segment - It's big enough to play games and type email/text yet small enough to stuff in a coat pocket, which is exactly what I saw going on with the Samsung Note. And wherever I took out the Kindle Fire, people were very curious about it.
