Tablet noob questions

[The Spartan]

Am I getting this right? Nexus 10 was released in 2012 and hasn't been updated since?

Yep you're right, I was waiting till they introduced the Nexus 10 (Mark 2) before buying a 10" tablet but it didn't materialise, still I believe Google I/O is this month so I'll wait to see what they unveil hardware wise but I'm not holding out a lot of hope.

I might buy the Xperia Z2 if nothing is announced.

If they don't bring out a new tablet, you'll get a phone instead?

Sorry that would be the Xperia Z2 tablet

I was researching this for family the other day. The iPad wins out overall, but the Nexus 10 was top of the android or windows offerings on the what hifi site. Can't find the exact page I was looking at, but they had the various options ranked as 1. iPad 2. Nexus 10 3. everything else. You might be able to find the list with a bit more patience than I've got....

I just googled Xperia Z2 and the whole first page was all about phones

Very happy with my Nexus 7 for pocketability and functionality. However, too lazy to do my own research on

- Best way to get my (Windows) iTunes content (tracks, playlists & podcasts) onto the tablet and best app to play it?

- As above for movies/TV (in a ridiculous number of different formats)

- General 'dummies' guide to android, preferably as a free ebook?

Both models of the Nexus 10 are showing as out of stock at the moment, which is often an indicator that they are ramping up to a new product.

Rumours of a Nexus 8 abound.

Yep my bad, I should have stated that I was on about the tablet version.

Mind it is pretty confusing giving them the same name.

Yeah I remember when they started offloading the Nexus 4 in preparation for the Nexus 5's arrival, I'd be well happy if they do release a new Nexus 10 but if it is a Nexus 8 it's something I'd also consider. My original Nexus 7 has served me well but I want something new

Ah, that's the one

I'd excluded the Nexus 7 as the query was about 10 inch options.
