Q. I need to be able to use external storage(especially cameras) with the Google Nexus 7. Since my camera uses a SD/microsd card and the google nexus can't take either, I'd need to either connect them together directly(in which case the camera is the storage device) or connect the camera's microsd card via USB. This tablet seems like a better value than the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.0 7, but being able to display pics from my camera on it is a crucial feature I won't compromise on.
A. Using stickmount will allow you to read your SD card (with a usb adapter) on a Nexus 7. This will require you to root your tablet, which may void your warranty.
There are other, similar apps that will allow you to read an SD card without rooting. The only one I have personal experience with is Nexus Media Importer, which is $2.99, but doesn't require root.

Why is the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 irrelevant?
Q. I cannot find any nice cases for this phone! I love the Galaxy Note 2 but stores/websites act like it doesn't exist! I am sooo sick of hearing about the S3 and the iPhone 4 and 5. There are a few cheap cases here and there for the SGN2 but iPhone 4 and 5 and Samsung Galaxy S3 have a much larger variety! Where can I find good cases? Is it because the phone is still fairly new?
A. I also have a Galaxy Note 2 and found it hard to find a case that I liked. The reason is simple... when the Galaxy Note came out.. it was the largest sized cell phone on the market. Most of the Universal cases sold at stores and mall kiosks don't carry anything that can fit the Note's larger size. However, relief is on the way. Since Samsung's been extremely successful with the Notes.. other manufacturers are coming out with 5-6" in models now... so that means the next generation of cases will be large enough for the Galaxy Note 2+.
As for my case, I checked Best Buy, Target and Staples and none of them had case for my phone. The tech guy at Staples told me they would get some larger cases for the Note 2 soon. I ordered a horizontal holster case from Newegg.com for $10. It wasn't what I wanted.. but it sure beat paying the $60 AT&T wanted to charge for the case they sold.
