very pricey, for that price why wouldnt you just buy an ipad?
Where is this devices section of which you speak?
Nice one. I might pick one up from Officeworks and see if I can get it cheaper.
Why is the nexus 10 appear to be using the phone interface….
what is the 70 dollar price premium for? I hate the idea of us having to pay extra for everything for no reason other than not being in america.
if you take tax into account in the usa, it isnt that big. 400*108%=$432. Take GST off here and it is 426. Both + postage. So it actually isn’t that different.
