It seems the much-rumored Google Nexus Tablet is nearing release. Citing Basemark benchmarking reports, the device is supposedly codenamed Grouper, running Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) and employing a 7-inch, 1280 x 768 display powered by a 1.3GHz quad-core Tegra 3. If true, this means the upcoming tablet will likely lack 4G wireless connectivity since Nvidia's latest SoC is incompatible with current 4G chipsets. Without 4G, and since this is a forward-thinking Nexus device, it's safe to say that the tablet will lack a data wireless radio of any sort and will instead ship with just WiFi.Besides, even without the compatibility issues (which might be resolved), Google will not be able to launch a wireless-enabled tablet at a Kindle Fire price. They can't in essence eat their Jelly Bean and have it too.
