Asus Google Nexus 7 - user opinions and reviews

I own an 8GB Nexus 7 model and can confirm that using a USB OTG cable and the android app Nexus Media Importer (which costs about a dollar on the market and does NOT require rooting), lets you hook up a flash drive to the device so you can stream movies, music off it. My 8gb Nexus 7 currently is streaming movies off of a 32gb memory stick - not bad for a couple of dollars for the cable and media importer app. You can even plug in a joypad that has a usb attachment on it to play games on it. Haven't tried them all, but I know asphalt 7 works fine as do quite a few other games.
The only slight downside is that you cannot write to the flash stick, so you can't install apps or write documents, etc to the stick.

Please let me know if you can use this device for b/t tethering from a java device. I could use the Samsung galaxy Tab (SIM version) and it gave me the option to use internet from my phone.

CURRENTLY surely this N7 supporting many latest hi-end Android games. And CURRENTLY it's one of the beast out there. Worth it to buy as long as you didn't get cheated:)
Still no fixed date when or where will this N7 officially launched here in Jakarta... after Malaysia and Japan.
