As if Android (software) was not enough, Google brought its Nexus (hardware) in the war front to double the challenges for Apple.

Google Nexus is reportedly to be launched in July this year with a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and a higher screen resolution compared to current 1280×800 pixels. Google aims at shipping a whopping eight million Taiwanese manufacturer Asustek-made tablets in the second half of the year.

I’m wondering if Google is trying to compete with Apple’s iPad mini 2 or directly with Apple. Because by now almost all of its revenue (which I suppose, is very huge) came from online advertising.

I guess Google is up to something more than money and that Apple’s ex CEO, Steve Jobs’ advice to Larry Page is standing in way of Apple.
