I bought this tablet last month from my Community Colleges bookstore, which is connected with B&N. I was originally gonna get a laptop, but I seen this tablet was just released so I got this instead. I paid 180 for it. It came with some pre-installed apps, some of them can be removed, while others cant. The Google ones can't be uninstalled. Your gonna have about three gbs of memory left, but you'll have even more storage with a memory card (microSDHC). The screen display is is very crisp! I mainly use this tablet to read books, browse the internet, listen to music and watch movies, so I'll just touch on those things.
