299 U.S. dollars = 953.121713 Malaysian ringgits
199 U.S. dollars = 634.351909 Malaysian ringgits

299 meh ? ? i thought 249 ?

some review stated the device comes with GPS, some not.
anybody can clarify this? as far as i know, accelerometer, gyro and compass is confirmed.

should have... coz also mentioned is offline maps -- using maps for navigation.

When you say "navigation", it has to use GPS. You may have maps and applications on your app. It may be able to show you route from one point to another point. But if it needs to "navigate" you, it HAS to have GPS. Even network triangulation cannot be used for navigation.

navigate yourself. that's why i said 'manually'.
you dont need a GPS to help you always.
read your map. read the road signs. take a look at the landmark.
you'll find your way home.

lol... u dun need an android device for that!

just get a hochinsoon map... and navigate manually...

Logical thinking: Why would Google wanna release new version of Maps on a new tablet without GPS?

Impossible

249 U.S. dollars = 793.736811 Malaysian ringgits
199 U.S. dollars = 634.351909 Malaysian ringgits

Wah quite cheap. Wat's the diff between the 2?

well, it's not wrong if i want to read a map while enjoying a movie, right? or perhaps surfing the web.
get creative. the device itself is a multipurpose item. so, why not?

The Nexus 7: Google just brought a knife to a gunfight
http://www.bgr.com/2012/06/27/nexus-7-ipad...s-apple-google/]

Yes, Google’s margin is likely so thin that it will barely make any money at all selling its tablets at this price, and other vendors may find it impossible to cut prices this much and remain profitable — adding their own apps, services and other value-adds costs money that simply won’t be recovered at margins this thin. So why is Google launching the Nexus 7 if it likely won’t make any real money on sales?

For Google, this is a land grab.

Google is an advertising company first and foremost. Its products and services exist, at least in large part, to serve its clients’ ads to users. This is how Google makes the bulk of its money. Just like Facebook — which Google is so desperately trying to emulate with Google+ — the more users Google reels in, the more money it makes.

The company loves to tout daily Android device activation numbers because at its core, it is an advertiser’s metric. This is the audience. Google confirmed on Wednesday that it now activates a staggering 1 million Android devices each day. 1 million! That number is positively remarkable. And the craziest part? It’s still growing.

Google is trying to spread things out a bit with the Nexus 7, adding a Kindle Fire-like model that makes the company’s various content services a central focus of the device. However successful or unsuccessful these efforts may end up being, they will always play second fiddle to Google’s core money-maker, which is advertising. This is Google’s mission.

Is Apple’s mission any more noble? Of course not.

Apple is a business — a ridiculously successful business — and its goal is to make products for as little as possible and sell them for as much as possible. Try as it might, Apple doesn’t make a significant portion of its revenue by selling ads, so the company has to make money the old fashioned way. Like other product vendors, it does this by taking advantage of cheap labor costs in China and Brazil, and then selling its wares at enormous markups. It also offers an expansive range of content through iTunes, which Google is now doing its best to match with Google Play.

Storage..8GB vs 16GB

Wah this is really worth it, with 3G?
