We will see when the benchmarks come out....

the t604 is a better class, higher clocked fpu, with more cores, than the mali 400, which is known to be an excellent gpu. saying that we'll wait for benchmarks to see if it has good peformance is like saying we'll need to wait for benchmarks to see if a new quad core 3ghz xeon mac pro has better performance than an old core duo mac.

As I said, wait on the benchmarks. The nexus 10 is not only slower than the latest ipad, it's slower than the iPhone 5.

And Nexus 10 is lighter to carry, has NFC, HDMI, microUSB, and a map

app that *works*...

KDT
There are plenty of map apps on the app store unless you think none of them work...

...except *Apple's*. At least Google's works, and they also have a better voice driven search app that even tells that bitch Siri where to go...

I've been using Apple's Map App since it was released with iOS 6 and still haven't had a problem with it. Perhaps you should actually TRY it!

Actually, I HAVE on my iPad2. For the most part I do like it. Like you, I haven't encountered the issues others have, but that doesn't mean it doesn't work for a lot of folks if it is giving erroneous displays.
