Small quibble: the 16gb N7 (the most comparable in this case) is actually $250. That might change later this week... but for now - that is still the case.

- jonknee 14y agoSmall quibble back: unless you're specifically looking for 16GB instead of the entry level, the comparison is valid. Apple doesn't let you pay any less than $329.
- numbsafari 14y agoWhat good is 8GB of storage good for on a media consumption device? Even the Kindle Fire HD starts at 16GB for $199 (with ads).
- randomchars 14y agoUnless you are a good lad and do as Google says it's prohibitively small.
- jonknee 14y agoI don't think I've ever had more than that on any of my iPads. I have more on my phone because I like to store music there, but the media I consume on the iPad is streamed. On a related note, the use of storage as the differentiating price point is also infuriating--it's so cheap (about $1 a GB). Don't get me started on the inflated cost of cellular chipsets, $130 extra for the privilege of paying for mobile data to a specific carrier is a joke.
- kyriakos 14y agothis is no longer the case. 250 is for the 32gb version. the 16gb will drop to 199 by google's keynote next week and the 8gb will be phased out. the price i really cant wait to find out is samsung's galaxy nexus 10... if its lower than 400 it will potentially take away some of the new ipad's sales plus some from windows rt
