And I also made the statement that, like the iPad, Android devices can be very easy to use.
Maybe you should read it again with the Apple-colored glasses off. Don't let fanboism make you start chasing ghosts.

But if the Nexus 7 stops working after a few months, you will face some issues getting some support, same goes for Android. If that happens to an iPad, you walk into an Apple store and they will troubleshoot that for you.
A big advantage when the software vendor is also the hardware one.
I listed Apple store support as a pro.

BTW, Surely you know that the Nexus 7 IS an Android device, and both the OS and the device in this case are made by Google? So we're comparing ..um...apples to apples there....

But going back to the main topic, the main difference is the aspect ratio. Those black bezels on the Nexus steal too much space. And the thing is so narrow that reading a book requires changing pages a lot. Same goes for browsing; screen does don't display enough content for a normal webpage.
For you, maybe. Millions of us are perfectly happy web browsing and reading on our Android devices of various aspect ratios and bezel sizes. Don't confuse your personal preference with an absolute truth.
