I have a nexus 7 and love it. I use my phone as if its just a basic phone now. I think Google is going in the right direction and I hope it shoots out 4G nexus so I don’t have to use my Verizon jetpack any more

That’s where the Apple and Google paradigms are completely different. Everything Android and Google play related is managed via the web. You simply log into play.google.com manage your apps from there – as soon as you hit “install” on the website, the app is pushed to your nexus. No cables.

if you visit contacts.google.com you can manage all your contacts, which automatically sync with your nexus.

Same with email, calendar, etc. It’s all on the web. No need to plug it into your computer.

I agree with you. But with Orkut -> Google Wave -> Buzz -> Plus, google never left social. it was changing it every year. The same might be true about entertainment. Certainly Google will not leave it but it may re-brand and change it.
For example, some time ago I wanted to install application at my Android phone. I discovered that Market disappeared…WTF? It was replaced by Google Play.
