Camping? You Better Bring Your Nexus 7 [VIDEO]

Google's Nexus 7 Android tablet is selling really well, and the company decided now would be a good time to release the first video ad for the device.

The ad, titled "Camping," shows the myriad of ways in which you can use your Nexus 7 while camping -- watch a movie, use it as a flashlight, play a game of chess or read a book.

We see one problem with this scenario, however -- the Nexus 7 is a Wi-Fi-only tablet, and some of the activities shown in the video require an internet connection. Sure, you can tether it with a smartphone, but out in the wilderness, some might prefer the ease of use of a 3G/EDGE/GPRS-capable tablet to a Wi-Fi-only one.

Google has recently stopped taking orders for the 16 GB version of the device due to overwhelming demand. Interestingly enough, the cheaper, 8 GB Nexus 7 is still in stock.

The 7-inch tablet sports a quad-core processor, a 1280x800 display and is running the latest version of Android, Jelly Bean.
