I'm sure this will benefit a lot of people but for me tethering is still the way to go. Free and saves battery on my N7.

Yeah saves N7 battery but not my phones lol

Always thought this was inevitable. Bet they've realized that they're missing out on sales to Samsung, because some want 3G or 4G built it, or can't tether due to their contract.
Happy tethering to my Arc, when I get another one of course.......... (Just have to carry around my spare battery lol)

I'm just wondering what price will jump to??
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

Ugh. This is good news and bad. Good news because I've always wanted a mobile connection. But bad because I already purchased this one!! Dammit. Guess this will be going on eBay soon.
I wish they would add a rear camera. Nexus 7 + rear camera + 3G would be a decent contender against ipad mini

Like all 3g/4g enable tablets, sales will be abysmal. Who in their right mind would sign up for a data contract on such a low price tablet and pay $30 a month?

I have a spare sim I can use but i see your point wouldn't be worth an expensive contract

People like myself who are seriously considering using the nexus 7 as a phone. I might not get the next nexus phone if they come out with dated specs like they have done with the past two.

Do you think the Nexus 7 would make a decent replacement for a phone?

Yeah if you want to look like a idiot.

I don't see it being a big seller. One of the biggest selling points is the price. Add another $150/200 and a data plan......big time deal breaker!!!

How so? It's not like I hold up the tablet to my head when I make calls. I just plug in my headset or Bluetooth. In fact people are amazed when they see me make calls on it. I get friends asking "you can make calls on that thing? " it's especially funny to see their face when I tell them it's free too (google voice + talkatone).

You would look stupid taking pictures on a tablet.

Nah.
I'm happy w/tethering from my phone. Saves battery, plus I never go over 5gb anyway. Besides, didn't Asus or Google sell the Nexus 7 at a lost? If so, then is this a way to recoup their loss?

Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium

I'm not so sure a 3g enabled N7 would have a phone function built in anyway.
In any case, even if I had the choice on release I would have still gone Wi-Fi.

So naive. I'm already using it as a softphone and it works fine. CsipSimple works better than any other softphone I've used. This includes ALL of the crappy Windows softphones.

The N7 is portable but its not that portable to use it as a phone lol. Can you really carry the thing around like a cellphone?!! Wow I give you props if you can. A cell is still a lot more convenient when making calls. I understand Google voice etc but I dunno if I could do it full time.

Nexus 4 parts for a good price !

So dropped my nexus 4 and broke the screen. Looked in the states 150$ + shipping at least another 50$.
Came across a website in Spain. Screen ( lcd + touch ) for 79 euros and 7 euros shipping to Canada !!! The package left the 19 of February and arrived the 25th Keep in mind shipping was only 7 euros !
Here is the web site:
http://www.spareslg.com/catalog/category/view/s/nexus-4-e960/id/16135/
They upped their prices by a bit. Instead of 79 Euros it's now 86... still a very good price tho
If you are like me and dropped your N4, this is a good website !

Too bad they don't have the N4 USB daughter board. Nobody does. I need it to fix mine.

Why do none of these sites sell any of the screws?! I'm waiting on lg to send me the 2 torx screws they neglected to put back when the DIDNT fix my phone and I have stripped and ghetto altered screw now on my battery connector I need to replace. Can't find anywhere that sells the screws. I have the part numbers from the lg manual but they must protect these things to the max because I can't find them anywhere.

My wife placed here phone in the toilet so we looked at the note 2. She didn't like the screen either. She passed on the n4 because of the back glass. Would have broken it, guaranteed.

If you haven't sold it yet, you could get around $50 for it at gamestop or radioshack (not sure if they exist in the UK)
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD

I bet you can get better price selling online than going to a god awful place like gamestop and ratshack.
As for replacement, try amazon.co.uk.

If you wait a few months. U can sell all separately part on ebay....
Like motherboard, back cover, speakers, battery, screws,.... You may even cover your cost.

Because in a few months more nexus 7 will have dead battery and parts kaput, and you will get more demand for spare part.
now n7 is not even 12 months old...
and when 1 year warranty is expired.
everybody will look on line to get cheap spare parts....
sell it spare parts.

Almost Free Nexus 7 smart cover

I have a brand new orange/"goldenrod" smart cover.
I bought it for my gen 1 nexus but decided to sell it and get the new N7.
Anyone that wants it can have it for the shipping cost.
Looks like the orange one in this pic. It is a darker shade than in the pic though.
