I must salute 2 pioneers in linguistics.
Perhaps there will be a giant monolithic banana arching over the Datenautobahn that the VolksTablet can "stream" over. |

It can convert them to a google doc file, but you can easily convert out of it. Plus it is still optional, I've got some stuff on my google drive, that hasn't been converted. |

Part of me likes the idea of a Nexus 7 and a little larger screen and trying out Jelly Bean, but it's hard to justify, given my Note does all of what I need right now and with more eye friendly resolution plus a card slot!
I did try out my first magazine from Google Play yesterday, and the app didn't let me change text size, at least in that magazine. No zoom either. If I did magazines often, a 7" or larger tablet might be justified, but I don't. |

More than cheap, I hope manufacturers quickly come to the realization that tablets need diversity. They need to start producing more than one model, just like laptop makers do. HP, for example, makes 46 different laptops with 7 different screen sizes. I want to see similar diversity with tablets.
