It's not the one with micro SD?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Jessica, it doesn't seem much of a deal to me.
Microcenter has refurbs with the card slot for a lot less: [link]
Best Buy has new 7-inch Galaxy Tab 3's with 16GB for $60 more: [link]

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Oh, I didn't know there was a 16GB model. Maybe I'll stop by the store tomorrow and look at one, just to see. I do love 7" tablets.
[eta: And I think they all have micro SD slots. That does make a difference.]

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Just bought my husband a Kindle. Now he won't steal mine all the time!

But she still has to pay for cellular service...are you saying she'd somehow pay less with a Microcenter model? I'm confused.

Hey. New board.
I am playing with the Halo feature of Paranoid Android, which is a notification system that allows you to pop up notifying apps in a floating window on top of your current app. It is one of the neatest things I have seen on a custom Rom. I just responded to an email as I wrote this without having to switch out and back. I know several SMS apps have a quick reply option but this enables that sort of thing for any app. Really cool. I know a lot of the Androidphiles on this board are not custom Rom types but it is pretty amazing and may be coming. I think it was inspired by Facebook Home of all things.

I'd say it all comes down to how important cellular service is. If you don't care about it, you can get a very cool second gen Nexus 7 for less money. Or some other 7" tablets for a lot less money (from ASUS and Lenovo and, you know, brands you've heard of). My 10" tablet cost $250 so it's right there if you want something bigger.

Hey. New board.
My 10" tablet (Nook HD+) cost $168 with tax. It's very much a media consumption device (no cell service, no camera) but it's pretty great for that. I'm quite happy with it.

My goodness, a tech firm rolls back a stupid decision when the users complain: [link]
I'm surprised, and disappointed that I am surprised. This shouldn't be so unusual.
