Just decided to order a Nexus 7 for the kids as a sharey christmas present (they're 6 and 3 so sharing is going to be a case of the 3 year old watching the 6 year old use it) anyway my question is... where is the best place to buy?
Online? From Google Play or from a retailer?
or is it better to buy in a store for any reason to do with warranties or hey ho?I'm a tech-idiot, I know nothing, help me.

Your 3 year old will have no problem with it.
- My three year olds problem is only the 6 year old.

In the US... do peeps generally buy these things from Google Play?
Just wondering if delivery times are okay when you order from the Play site and whether they're likely to get the shit kicked out of them by delivery apes making it advisable to buy from a shop etc etc
You can tell I'm an ageing luddite by the nature of my questions hahah

Oh fuck it I'm ordering off Play. Stupid fucking British people, always at home watching Emmerdale Farm when I need them, the pork-stinking dumpy shaped, grave stone toothed inbred chav bastards.

My 2.5 year old commands the iPad like a boss. I haven't let him use the Nexus 7, but I don't see why it would be any different. There is no denying that tablet UI's are intuitive when you see young kids using them.
- BTW, although in Canada, my 7 came from the Play store in 5 business days.ETM
- my friend's 2.5 year old does the same with an iPad, it's impressivemonospaced

Buy from John Lewis, they used to give a two year warranty that is quite good.
Apart from that just get it form PC world and get a cheap warranty from them.

Going to be funny seeing how mindless the next generation of consumer drones are. Used to just pointing at things and getting instant reward.

Oh and invest in a great case. They'll treat it like a frisbee.

I second John Lewis, but you'll be lucky to find one.

I got a pretty good case for mine Horp here is a link to it. it has a tough plastic surround which has fake leather glued onto it. Seems pretty rugged.

@Horp, you better get 2, there will be a battle on the playing field.
I have learned this from having a 4, 5 and 8 year old. I am getting 3 N7's this year. We have 2 ipads and sharing is not seamless for sure. HAHA!
