I haven't figured out how to pull cash out of my backside yet, so unfortunately I have to wait until payday.

So I needed a 7" to 8" tablet solution basically now.
I have a Asus Google Nexus 7 generation 2 (2013). I only use it for apps I cannot get on my iPads. Mostly for camera control apps since Apple is averse to giving those fuller control of the iPad. I like it except for the gosh awful Android OS. I also don't trust Google with my data, so my Nexus has nothing as far as personal data on it other than my Gmail account name which was required to set up the tablet. I have no contacts, calendar entries, or anything on it. BTW, the Asus Google Nexus 7 generation 2 (2013) has the same pixel density as the iPad mini 5, albeit with a smaller screen resolution of 1920x1200 and 0.9" smaller diagonal length. Also the Nexus has a LCD screen that only supports sRGB color space whereas the iPad mini 5 supports the newer P3 color space that allows more saturation. Over all the Nexus is a great little tablet for being 6 years old.
