I haven't been able to discover whether there's something similar for the Nexus 7. Ipads are easier to use; android is more flexible.

any advice? Also, is a 4g plan (or whatever) really worth the expense? For most of that, I can use my phone.
Yes the Nexus 7 has bluetooth, so a $25 wireless keyboard works fine with it. Any tablet that has bluetooth can do that.
