Is Nexus 7 the rumoured Google tablet?

As Google I/O is coming nearer, the leaks are coming even faster. The latest one to originate from Australia has brought almost all the details of much-rumoured Google tablet.

This seven-inch tablet will be reportedly dubbed as Nexus 7 and is being manufactured by Asus, as rumoured in the past. Nexus 7 will also be the first Android product to come with Jelly Bean aka Android 4.1, reported Gizmodo Australia.

Among other features, it will have 1GB of RAM, 1.3GHz NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor and a 1280x800p resolution display.

Gizmodo is also reporting that Nexus 7 will retail in two storage options 8GB and 16GB, which will be sold for $199 and $249 respectively. There seems to be no memory expansion slot on the tablet, which is certainly a downside.

There is no word whether this tablet will ever make its way to India as we also haven't seen the launch Galaxy Nexus in the country.

Google also seems to have let go of rear camera on the tablet as the leak is suggesting that there will only be a 1.2MP front camera, which makes sense as the company might be looking to reduce the overall pricing by removing the not so-necessary components.

Nexus 7 is expected to be announced at Google I/O 2012 keynote tomorrow.
