Re: Maybe...maybe not.

I thought the same as soon as I saw the new N9. In my opinion after have a N7 2012 for couple of years I wanted to upgrade as soon as the new Nexus tablet came out, but 9", 4:3 and £400 is too much of a jump. So I looked around and found that the N9 is very closely based on the NVidia Shield Tablet - but 8" (better size) and the 32Gb LTE (4g) is only £299. For me it also has the benefit of console mode 1080p which is great for console gaming whilst working away each week and being in hotels. For approx £375 I got the tablet, console controller (shield controller) and cover (with extremely good magnets for position). Once the Shield get Lollipop (which will be soon as N9 is based on same chipset) it's own performance will move from amazing to astounding.
