Best Buy on Tuesday via a screenshot of their ad posted elsewhere, $230.
Don't like a large bezel? Well I guess one cannot have everything. |

It doesn't seem that Samsung is even trying to compete.The Galaxy Tab 3 has a microsd slot, but so does the hisense pro and the upcoming newest generation of the asus memopad, both of which have are 50$ cheaper with 720p screens. |

9 hours for battery life is what I have read but I forget where to tell the truth. If I find that again in my travels, I will link. Of course real world use and specific activities done varies one's mileage.

http://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/201...-for-ereading/ 11.2 ounces, lighter than the previous gen nexus. Still don't know about the battery life though. I know the ipad mini bigger, but the fact that google managed to make a lightweight device with a 1080p screen makes me the doubt the claims that Apple can't make a lightweight mini with a retina screen. |

And they managed all that with a smaller battery -- 3950mAh vs 4325mAh for the 1st gen.
