I should start out by saying, I am an Apple user. However, the price point on the Nexus products can't be beat and I wasn't about to shell out the dough for an iPad.
There was an initial learning curve coming from iOS to Android. Once I got over that stumbling block I did indeed love the tablet.
My main gripe though is that whenever I use it it seems either it's not enough or too much. Meaning, most of the things I need to do I can either do on my iPhone, or are things I need an actual computer for. It's not so much a dig against the Nexus as it is against tablets in general.

Google's got it's hands on just about everything these days with the exception of a pet sitting business, which they could probably undertake with a webcam and a robot anyway. This is a nice tablet and boast an incredible hig resolution display. The best part of all is that it's very inexpensive under 400 bucks, and comes with free text messaging and a fun video chat program. Definitely worth a gander.

As a life long Apple fan boy, I gotta say the transition to Android was easier than people have lead me to believe. It is light, fast, brilliant resolution and easily navigable. Whether or not you use Google's products, it'll be an awesome product but I love the seamless integration between Google products like Search, Mail, Drive, Maps, Google+ etc.
Pros
- Great integration with Google products
- Monster battery (I've gone for 3 days without charging doing pretty excessive movie watching and internet browsing)
- Best screen resolution
- Photo sphere is going to be a GREAT tool for agents. You can not only take panoramic photos but you can take complete 360 degree photos of a given area (similar to when you do street view on Google Maps) which has astounding implications for agents. You can even share and view these photos on Google+ so if your clients are there, a great way to really make it feel like they're there, even if they're hundreds of miles away.
Cons
- If you've grown up with iTunes / App Store like I have, then navigating Google Play can be a daunting experience. Most of my main apps are there but I'm not so sure if Agents get all the apps they use for work on Android as they do on Apple.
- App developers haven't quite caught up with formatting applications for the resolution and size of the Nexus 10 but they will soon. For now, it's a bit stretched as most of these apps were clearly designed for Nexus 7 or smaller.
- Given the enormous battery size it does take quite a while to charge. Overnight should do it if you drain to 5% like I do.
