That's unfortunate, I don't use any, but Canada doesn't have play music, that's the only thing I would use, and we don't even have it, our Netflix sucks too

i got all those too, i remember transformers was preloaded and added to my account when i bought the Nexus 7 last year though. Im curious about what the americans got though, somehow i dont think they would get Canadian Living. I wouldnt be surprised if their freebies are much better.

Yes, hadn't tried until just now, but it played fine, for the first few seconds at least. But it turns out Michael Bay directed the Play store version as well, so I stopped watching it

In Australia I got the same books as you, and I already had Transformers from when I bought my nexus 7. The magazines I got were different though. I got Tech Life, GQ Australia and Vogue Australia.
Transformers worked fine for me too.

MW3 is the CoD where people are finally realizing how rehashed the game is. I had people in Kmart all night talking about how it is essentially just a map pack for MW2. They even reused buildings from CoD4. Lolololol

I'm a huge Final Fantasy fan but it's pretty terrible. The learning curve is huge, even before you get your first set of jobs you'll need to grind. It was not worth the money on DS and I doubt it'll be worth the extreme price for the Android version either. Steer clear of this one.
I would probably get GrooveIP. I've tried the lite version and it works pretty well.

What surprises in Nexus 7???

Anyone spot any included surprises in their pre-ordered Nexus 7?
Mine had what looked to be a pube stuck underneath the box tape. That was kind of a surprise I guess.

I thought I read somewhere that Flash won't be compatible with Jelly Bean.
You need to install the latest flash player apk manually by downloading it. After that, you need to install a flash compatible browser for example Dolphin and then you should have flash working.
Anyone with an N7 can you tell me what happens when you repeatedly press the Android version section in settings -- about?
This was an Easter egg on ICS which displayed a low rez ics Android robot graphic. Just wondering if they did something new for jelly bean.

Yeah there's a list somewhere of what USA and UK get included.
The UK ones are poor in comparison.
We get no music, one crappy book and the movie
We also get slightly less credit than yourselves and pay a bit more for the device . . . . Win Win for the UK then . . . . . LOL!!!
