    Tab 3 8.0 is a winner

    I am surprised there is not more discussion on the Tab 3 8.0. I could not be happier. My prior tablets were Nook Color rooted, Galaxy Tab 1 10.1 and Nexus 7 16gb. I really liked my N7 until it got laggy as the memory started to fill. I ordered the Tab 3 8.0 in large part for the expandable...
