Just look at the N7.2 and the ipad mini and tell me how you can justify charging an extra $100 for the fruit - you get a better processor, 4x the RAM, 3x the pixels, NFC and other goodies, and only at 2/3 the price.

Jessica has a major point... why would I buy a new tablet of any sort when the Nexus 7 and iPad mini do everything I want and I already own them... if I have a reason to need something more powerful then I may consider a new tablet but otherwise I'll happily use what I've got until they fail...
It's fine buying new tech all the time if you've got plenty of money but, guess what, a lot of us aren't independently wealthy and we actually get our kit to perform specific tasks/provide entertainment and as long as they meet our needs then we'll keep using them and not buying shiny new toys that we don't need (as opposed to want)...
