Its real and it's coming..
new pic here.. http://news.softpedia.com/news/New-Galaxy-Note-8-0-Photo-Emerges-Online-...
I will likely choose between Note8.0 w/3G or Tab3 w/3G, wish they had LTE variants.

Really?
Samsung I will give you this.. You have taken the word "Phablet" and given it True Meaning..
This is the answer to the Wildly Sucessful iPad Mini? No Way Bub..
But it should be a good alternative for College Students.. Female's as well as some Males, to stick in the old backpack to whip out for class notes.. :-)
My Gawd holding & using the "Busy Buttoned Phablet" in Landscape is going to be a frustrating affair.. But should be great in it's Natural Portrait position for the note takers.. and casual readers but not much else..

Have you tried Forever Gone for your Nexus 7 lag issue? My Nexus 7 was lagging so badly that it was almost unusable after upgrading to 4.2.1. I found a post about how some Nexus 7 devices use Samsung NAND chips that have a problem and other use Hynix NAND that doesn't have a lag problem and that running Forever Gone on the Nexus 7 can fix the lag issue. I installed and ran Forever Gone on my Nexus 7 and it was good as new. Here's a link to the post http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-nexus-7-tablet-forum/215793-psa-...

Me too - via BeyondPod. Started with episode 122 and now episode 123 is the same. Prior 6 months worked fine.
And the links to the .mp4 for 122 & 123 here: http://feeds.feedburner.com/androidcentralvideo?format=xml are broken as well (404 error).
