Will Nexus 7 release in India and what is the expected price?

The problem is with chrome, not youtube, use dedicated app/dolphin browser.

Youtube does work in chrome. I've tried it.

Chrome is default browser in Jelly Bean. And what about using of flash player in educational sites

Do u have Nexus 7?

And hence chrome problem in ICS or lower, chrome crashes all the time in ICS.

On eBay international its on luck how much custom will be going to charged.
You can check junglee.com it's amazon India you can check from their how much custom and shipping will be charged by amazon usa and their are their are many different seller available their.
Their is some discount going on eBay.in . You can check for discount coupon on google.

Any idea if its 400 USD I think they will charge at least 50 USD extra.
junglee.com has only one seller who is selling for 35,529 INR

I do, see 3-4 posts above, I've posted about it.

And btw Rider, Galaxy Nexus is 350$ now and not 400. Try getting it from someone living there, much cheaper than buying from a site which imports.

@SIDDHARTH.BEAM And ebay discount is only upto 1000 bucks with bank card.

Google is taking a stupid approach, 90% of web uses flash, so cutting it off basically means pushing people towards PC, maybe its a deliberate move by adobe,, to increase selling of PC, or better yet increase selling of Microsoft Surface, I'll definitely buy a surface.

And ebay discount is only upto 1000 bucks with bank card.

Time to time they do give flat 10% coupon, I got one last month, next when I get one and I can't use it I'll post here so you guys could snap it(through my account)

It is not a move by google, Adobe stopped flash development for JB.

I think google and apple are trying to keep adobe aside, by ignoring and not giving eff.

Nexus 7 won't be launched officially in India, ever. It is a tablet meant for content consumption and google sell them 0 profit. They intend to earn by selling books, songs, movies, magazines etc through the play store in the US. People in India hardly pay for any content and it is pointless for google to launch it here in India at this price. This is the same reason for which Kindle fire wasnt launched. No point in waiting for it to launch officially.
I had a relative flying down from the states and told him to get me a 16gb one. Cost me 14k approx. Warranty is an issue but I am willing to overlook it considering I am getting it so cheap.
Project butter is truly amazing. Never seen android so smooth. You can actually feel the pixels passing below your fingers My only gripe with it is fixed storage, thats why I ordered the 16gb one!

Going to cause issues, plenty of websites use flash, what about flash based game sites?

Whenevr I download from youtube through IDM it shows .flv file how can it be HTML 5?

Google?s Nexus tablet launching in India in October - Times Of India

IF they launch it, it wont be under 20k. Definitely. As they will have to earn through hardware sales here as content of play store is not available in India.

Even the galaxy tab 2 7.0 is for 250 in the US and 20k here!

May be they launch play store here.

Samsung always launch cheaper in Indian market.

And how many people do you think will BUY ebooks, movies, tv shows, magazines etc on a tab in India using there Credit cards? Google won't sell it here if it doesnt turn out to be profitable and at 200$ it is not!

Bro, How is 250$ cheaper than 20k ? 250$ is approx 14k and samsung are selling it for 20 here.

They have to change the codec, long process, powerful machines will be needed, but google has enormous processing power, these three codecs are proposed, no uniform standard yet: HTML5 video - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yea! you are right! only a few thousand people will buy those music, ebooks, movies, tv shows, magazines etc practically in India.
Have you rooted your nexus 7 with Toolkit yet?

Not yet, and I wont even get to do it The tab is for whole family and my dad wont let me risk it as sending it back for repairs will be a big hassle. I might root it after a few months when it gets a bit old

What I think is this, 200$ for 8GB, comes to 11000/-, add tax etc and say it will go for 15k, the 16GB version will go for 18k probably, it won't be more than 20k cause then it will face competition from Samsung Galaxy Tab 2(7") @ 19k, which loses in spec a bit but can make calls and have sd card slot, which is a big plus and runs ICS,

It's easy to root man, just few steps and it will be rooted and can easily backup and restore. Also getting back to factory reset is simple procedure. Where you will send to repair? Their is no warranty for imported gadgets.
P.S. Put an avatar so that its easy to recognize you bro.

Heyy dude, tell me why pure google nexus phones not sale much like samsung galaxy s series worldwide.

[daksh]

Tab 2 runs ICS and this runs JB
One major thing with nexus devices is that they get the updates the moment they are released!
yeah you're right about Tab 2 having 3g, that is a major plus in favor of it. But nowadays all Androids can tether via wifi hotspot hence I dint have to worry about that! I would rather go for the nexus even at 20k coz of the Tegra 3 future proofing and all future updates right on time!

A bit more people will buy, provided they cost same, I will gladly pay 50/- for PowerAMP music player(sadly it can't be cr@cked), and maybe some games, all together I might buy 10-12 apps, and I'll gladly pay 500-600/- for them, for magazines I would pay 50% of actual price, or a monthly subscription for a bunch of mags together(like netflix video service in USA), won't byuy TV show cause there is no point, pathetic web service here, I wouldn't pay for eBooks though(my bad).

Some of us would( me, you and a few more) but the general population here is so used to piracy that they dont see anything wrong with it, I HATE IT.

Yeah, but for people going to office, they lack the luxury of wifi hotspots, same with college etc, also note 3g is much faster than most broadband services now a days, and the big plus is the sd card slot, I want one such slot, and lastly what if samsung releases JB by this dec, that will level the playing field.

Wifi hotspot is using your phone's 3g services on any other wifi device, hence I will effectively be using 3g services on my wifi tab.

I know, I'm not a noob, one pretty big issue there, running a wi fi hotspot drains juice out of phones like crazy, and if I had a phone I'd want it up and stand by all the time(for calls), and most android sets do not give that luxury(except maybe razor maxx), so its not an option to use a hotspot on office, college etc. That's what I meant.

Samsung will release JB by Dec, Google will release Key lime pie on the nexus around july-sept next year, samsung will have stopped support for Tab 2 by then! And btw it is highly improbably that Tab 2 gets JB by dec as original galaxy tab 10.1 hasn't got ICS till yet in India.

All speculations and rumors etc, won't come to India that's for damn sure

My sincere apologies
Yeah you are right about the battery part, I use hotspot and it just sucks the juice out of my OneX, hence I do it while having my phone on charge

Galaxy 10.1 is dead in the water, but tab 2 is not, what I mean is if Asus makes a killing off selling Nexus tab here, samsung will have to do something, either lower prices, or JB upgrade, I'd buy the Galaxy if it costs same as 8GB nexus, can't look over the sd card slot, 3g, and ofcourse support(nexus in india will be supported by asus's partner rashi, and that's a bad bad thing).
