    Nexus 7 with 3G: http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/29/google-announces-299-32gb-nexus-7-with-hspa-mobile-data/

    Nexus 10: http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/29/google-nexus-10/

    Android 4.2: http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/29/google-bumps-android-to-4-2-keeps-jelly-bean-moniker/

    Both the Nexus 4 and Nexus 10 are rather killer in specs and prices.

    Nexus 4 S4 quad core, 4.7 inch 1260x768 display, 2GB RAM, 8MP camera
    8GB model at $299 and 16GB at $349 sold unlocked in Play Store

    Nexus 10 10.1-inch screen at a whopping 2560x1600 res at 300ppi (topping iPad 3/4) 16GB:$399 and 32GB: $499

    I have to admit the storage options on the Nexus 10 are upsetting.

    Poor me. If I would have waited a month, I could have doubled the storage of my Nexus 7 for the same price... oh well.

    EDIT: Wait, wasn't the Galaxy Nexus $350 or so in the Google Play store? We all oogled over that low price for an unlocked device... and told people that the price is low because of the next Nexus phone, which will be unveiled at full cost. Now the Nexus 4 is out, and it's $350 for the higher capacity model.
    I'd like to apologize to the people who were told that it'd be better to just buy a Galaxy Nexus now instead of waiting out for the higher priced "next Nexus". It turns out it would have been better to wait it out and get the Nexus 4 for the same price...

    Wow. I'm excited for the Nexus 10. And definitely picking up a nexus 4 as well. My S3 is about to be abandoned.

    $400 for the Nexus 10 is really good. It offers really good specs and looks nice. I'm definately going to try and get this as a christmas gift. The Nexus 4 looks nice. The only thing that's keeping me away for now is the low storage space. I'll probably be picking up one next year when the price drops.
    Android 4.2 looks promising.

    No LTE on Nexus is a fail.

    Releasing a device for over 200 markets > 77 US LTE markets.

    The Verge has a great article on it. I'd prefer no carrier intervention on my straight Google device.

    My iPhone is LTE, Unlocked for World-Wide Use, and has no carrier intervention.

    Why can't Google do the same thing?
