And I load photo's on it during my travels and make my traveljournal on 'pages' which you can export as worddoc, or email.
But go for the 64 GB!
I'm planning on getting an Android tablet because my phone's an Android, too. I've tried my father's 10 inch tablet and found it tires my wrists and arms quickly (although that probably is just that I have to get used to it). I'll mainly will use my tablet in bed, when watching tv at night or reading and I quickly want to check something online, check the news or play a game. I'll also plan to read graphic novels on it. I'll also use it as a replacement for my notebook when house sitting for friends during weekends between April and October, again just to surf and read news. Finally I'll bring it with my on holiday abroad (again instead of my notebook), which is usually once a year.

Finally I like the €250 price of the Nexus 7 32gb. 10 inch tablet, at least the ones with specs I like are a lot more expensive.

I think I'll go to the store next Monday, when I get home and play with a 7 inch tablet, unfortunately you can't install programs on it to test them out (like a comic book reader) but hopefully just surfing will give me a good enough idea. I hope.
