Where do you guys think Nexus 9 fits? I have gotten used to Nexus 7 for reading and Nexus 10 for writing/media consumption reading graphically rich stuff like magazine. Do you think Nexus 9 replaces both of those different types of works.

I think the onward march of phone sizes into the 6" range is cannibalizing the market for small tablets, and 9-10" for tablets is the remaining sweet spot between phones and laptops.

Given the Nexus 6, I actually think this is too small. If I'm going to have a six inch phone, I'd prefer a tablet that is upwards of 12". I think huge tablets are currently an unexplored niche that could kick off just like big phones did.

Huge tablets aren't exactly an unexplored niche; the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 and Microsoft Surface, and even a few bigger tablets, do exist.

I wasn't aware of the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2. Thanks -- I'm not keen on Samsung's products, but I do like to see the space being explored.

I guess I unintentionally excluded the Surface Pro 3 since it's so much more than just a tablet.

Unless apps are specifically designed for 12" screen and they work like traditional desktop I am not buying them. A screen as big as 12" needs to multitask. It has to has a dedicated taskbar not clicking the 3rd button to bring a bunch of backstack windows.
