\u201cAfter the success of the first Nexus 7<\/b>, we are very excited to continue our partnership with Google with this new model,\u201d said ASUS Chairman Jonney Shih. \u201cThe new Nexus 7<\/b> puts the very latest mobile technology in users\u2019 hands and sets a new benchmark for tablets.\u201d<\/p>\n
