Can i install CWM recovery with Rom Manager?  Will it replace my TWRP recovery?
*
If it works, it will replace your TWRP - this is a very good recovery. Why even bother to change it
Anyway Rom Manager nowadays is outdated and does not seem to work well on many devices
Use Nexus7 toolkit to flash CWM recovery - quick and simple

CWM backup is about same size lah. There are 2 folders in CWM backup - one the backup folder but the balance bulk is in the obb folder - go and look inside it
DON'T even try to tamper with these files as if you do guaranteed you will not be able to restore it. If you are using TWRP you can always backup to external Sdcard/or thumb drives and free your tab internal memory. I keep up to 4 backup of different roms in my thumb drives using TWRP
CWM can ONLY backup to internal memory

When will be the 3G version available on NewEgg.com??
I'm waiting to buy the 2nd one....

Same here. I suppose it depends on stock availability in the US - might take a while since even the Play Store ran out of Nexus 7s within hours of release.

If u are rooted flash the update zip with recovery. If not go to setting and check for OTA update.

http://betanews.com/2012/11/13/how-to-root-android-4-2/
the instructions in this page is bloody long. but dont have to do any of it.
just download the superSU file.

send to tablet, and flash in cwm.
done and have back root access.

duno why mskip toolkit cant restore my root access.
TS if you're seeing this, consider put the link above in first page, to guide people that lost root access in 4.2.

ok, thanks, bye! ^^
