and for a 2013 release tablet it should be running android 4.2
and better than the measly 32GB internal storage.
I guess I am not buying any...... and yes they are rushing new models with no changes to them.
If it's priced against Nexus 7 and ipad mini then we can have a winner.
The international version will have the phone function as well, this can be a great potential for me to get rid of my SGS3 and N7. hahaha... Imaging paying only $300 to get the "latest" mobile internet device that can also make occasional phone calls.
