For me it is easy, the Excite is the keeper. For me, Jellybean is a small player in the decision. What I would be looking at is over all hardware and ports and SD slots. The Excite has all the above and the Nexus has none of the above. In my most humble opinion the Nexus 7 is nothing more than a glorified KindleFire.So I have on my hands a Nexus 7 With JB and the Toshiba excite 7.7. I just can't make up my mind.
The nexus 7 is cheaper, direct updates from Google and the newest Jelly bean OS with all other cool features
The Toshiba Excite 7.7 has the awesome AMOLED screen, expansion slot and bigger screen.
Biggest thing is I feel like I want a bigger screen real estate but still be portable and light, which is where the excite 7.7 comes in. But the lack of updates and OS upgrade is troubling. Where as the nexus 7 will get tons of upgrades and support. Not to mention community support
So tough..
So were I in your shoes looking at which one to sell I would sell the Nexus 7, the Excite has so much more going for it than the Nexus, as for JB? The Excite will get it eventually, but just say it doesn't get it from Toshiba. ICS is still very new and usable. And the android community will figure root out on the Excite if they havent already and you will be able to install a JB/ROM on it if it is really that important, I still have a tablet running ginger bread and I would prefer it over the Nexus because it has ports and expandable memory.
Google going the Apple way on this product just tells me that Google is not paying attention to what we the paying customers want, they just think they know better and want to force their ideas on us.
Much like our government. And both are wrong. We know what we want or at least I do, and the Nexus 7 at any price above free is useless to me.
My two cents.
