Google could also afford to gamble on quantity. If they guarantee to buy multi-million units the price may come down a bit.

I'm not convinced the 7" screen size is a sweet spot for tablets, but it does have the advantage of being the furthest away from the iPad. That said, I like my Kindle Fire and a 1280 x 800 display (and other add-ons, such as GPS) and Ice Cream Sandwich in a similar package would produce a significant competator.
