Always worth waiting for this stuff to get sorted out. Same with all products at release really.

Meh, what piece of tech these days doesn't have little issues. That's why its worth buying from vendors with a track record of acknowledging and fixing them rather than burying their heads in the sand. Hopefully Google will be keen and able to fix this with software updates as it's a Nexus...

assuming it is just software of course!

All products on release have glitches, and this is no different, give it a week or two and it'll be ruling the tablet market (when all release bugs are fixed etc)...

Well at least they are not causing you to go in the wrong direction.

This seems to be the most common problem on the new Nexus tablets.

The improvements on the new Nexus are nice but not enough to make me replace my original

Got mine yesterday and a system update was downloaded as soon as I logged in to my WiFi. No problems with touch sensitivity or GPS so far.
