Or just go pick it up from him if you're in JHB. Got my Nexus 10 from Zac, no issues.

Thanks guys,....

Yep I do have them at the advertised R3700 incl shipping. Tho I cant promise ill be able to manage to keep it there for very much longer, if the R/$ continues on its decline...
 
And nobody else gives you a nice pizza with the Nexus!!!
 
I also bought my Nexus 7 32GB 3G model from zakdoc89 - and I'm loving it. Using a Cell C 3GB/365 day micro-SIM for R399 for when I am out of the office or away from home. Nice combo.

I still haven't been able to find a decent cover for my nexus 7. Any ideas? I got the speck one from incredible but the magnet turned the tablet off when I folded the cover backwards - which made it useless so I returned it. I ideally want something of a similar quality and build rather than a cheap one off ebay. Anyone have any ideas? How much would import duties be on a cover if I ordered from an international site?

Not sure about quality, but maybe look at these? (There's 2 covers there in the list)

I'll have my Nexus 7 3g in my grubby paws in another 2 or 3 hours :)

My mate is bringing it from Europe and I told him to get me a decent case also. Let's see what he brings :whistle:
 
Those of you with the 3g version: what is your battery life like?
 
Doing a bit of prep before my N7 arrives.

What are you guys using to root your N7? I thought I'd use CF's auto root and keep JB as stock for a while before I decide if or what ROM to go with. Any comments or suggestions otherwise?

I see on the link above, that CF talks about unlocking in the installation instructions, but this has never been an issue before. The procedure is also different from what I'm used to with the Samsungs I've had. He talks about wiping data also for example the first time you root. So if I root first and do an OTA update later, will this wipe out the root and I have to root again and hence lose all my data again?

Any advice gratefully accepted :)

It's ok....I was expecting more. I might be a little critical but with browsing, emails, games and movies it easily manages a full day.
