Fair to say the coupon was what did it for most of us who just bought a Nexus 7 (2013)! I can't live with 16GB at the moment.

Also:

I was a tad uncharitable to the N7 (2013)'s display in my comments before. I no longer feel that way, now that I've seen the N7 out of chain stores' demo mode.

The demo mode on N7 display models in stores like J&R and Staples doesn't show the true resolution of the N7 2013's screen.

I was quite disappointed when I saw the smudged-looking fonts on the Staples display model, but on my own N7, they're as vivid and etched as miniature neon decals.

Initially, I was worried about using the N7 to do public readings. I'm not worried any more.

Looks as though the time to buy the 32GB model might be at some point next year -- possibly BF 2014. For now, the HDX 8.9" is twice as expensive as the N7 I picked up at a $50 discount.
