look up on ebay. Many tablets under 100 are available with decent specs. Availability of low priced tablets is not what is keeping the market from exploding. It's the utility.

There's plenty of utility in a tablet. The problem with the current low cost ones is they suck as devices. The N7 is the first relatively low cost device to change that (plus having JB). A $99 N7 would basically take off.
True, but 'the average buyer' is wary of buying these tablets - some might be good, but there are also a lot of bad ones, with batteries that only last 2 to 4 hours tops and drop off over weeks of use, and and no simple way to return one for repair or replacement without forking out to send back to China etc.
If it's from a well known brands I am SURE they would do a lot better - heck even Binatone (and low rate cordless phone manufacturer) was able to shift a good number of their android 'ebook reader' (I got one for £30 from ebay, OK for reading books on the tube, not for much else).
So once someone like Google, Asus or Samsung sell a well made unit that stands up to the test of daily family use, then these things ae going to fly.
99% of what I do at home with a laptop (or ipod touch) is basic consumption. These will be a welcome replacement for many users.
