Nexus 7 sales could hit 8M by year's end, analyst says

A Gartner Inc. spokeswoman estimated the Nexus 7 so far has sold 1 million to 1.5 million units in about five weeks, based on reports from suppliers.

not bad considering the Kindle Fire sold around 5 million units.

One of my friends got a Nexus 7. He is already seeing the screen problem. He is not sure what he is going to do because tightening the screws does not fix the problem.

I wonder if this is going to be a design issue that will come back and haunt Google Nexus 7 owners.
