Between the 6" Fire and the dirt-cheap WinTabs a lot of people are going to buy tablets this XMAS that otherwise wouldn't. Eventually those folks will want to upgrade.

When I first heard Google was doing a Nexus 6 I thought it was a tablet to expand the market. But a phablet? At $650? It might bring in some good cash but it's not going to move the ecosystem market share needle...
