It would be nice if I could actually lay my hands on a 16g Nexus 7, no local retailer carries it. Well I should not say none do, one does at the old price.
I can find 32g Nexus 7 tablets at most office supply stores and the like, the few that don't carry Nexus usually carry Kindle.
So where are they at? I can go to Best Buy, Target, Wal Mart, or even an Apple store, for all things iPad but finding the Android tablets is...
In other words, smaller Android tablets forced nothing, unless your counting Kindle Fire's as androids. You can barely find them; I live in Atlanta and looked; but I can certainly find Apple products.
