it's not a direct competitor to the iPad it is much more closely related to the kindle fire and it is similarly priced. frankly a lot of things are half the price of apple products, it does not mean that you have to just buy them and be thankful.”
My point was a Tegra 3 tablet with a 7 inch 220DPI is a steal for £159 with or without an SD slot. Yes the resolution is less but the screen is 3 inches smaller, it's the DPI that matters.
The more things like SD card slot and front facing camera the more the cost will increase, you have to draw the line somewhere.
Of coarse its competing against the iPad especially in the UK, even Google kept mentioning how much more portable and lighter it is than other tablets.
There is no perfect size for a tablet, Google could have easily made a 10 inch tablet but they evidently think the increased portability of a 7 inch is better.
