Got mine yesterday from car Phone warehouse. No stock in their 3 stores Brighton and at the main one they did not even know what a Nexus 7 was. called head office and told 3 in stock over in Worthing (22 miles away). So went over and was told they did not have any, asked them to check their stock computer and guess what they had 3, well 2 now :). Am very pleased with it and have ordered a case from Amazon (Google Nexus 7 Tablet Case - Black Carbon Fibre Print: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics). The only problem as been remembering passwords for some apps, must be getting old.

Hi All, been reading this forum about Nexus for a few weeks now getting tips on it

First post to say just got mine today (HMV UK in store), just giving it a charge before I start setting it up (logged into google so far and got that set up but nothing else)

Congrats Paul and welcome to Android Forums.:)

Glad that you got yours. I'd recommend KeePassDroid for saving passwords.

Got my 32GB N7 on Black Friday for $230. Office Depot was the only place with a little discount.. Started this week playing with it. It is now on 4.2.1. Tried to root it 4 times with 2 different methods. I thought I had rooted it but it apparently did not work. Since it looked like I mess I set it back to factory settings. Will make a new attempt asap.

It is a nice little device. But I have a lot to learn. Not as easy as Windows but I am not running away from a challenge. And this wonderful forum is a lot of help.
