Reuters is reporting that Google will release a new version of the Nexus 7 tablet this summer. According to Reuters' sources, the new tablet will have a higher resolution display and faster processor. The price may be as low as $149.

At introduction, my guess is that the new tablet will keep the same $200 price as the current Nexus 7 with 16 GB storage. The current model will be discounted to $150 or less to clear inventory. After a few months, the new Nexus 7 price will be reduced.

This summer will be an exciting time for people interested in tablets with a 7 inch screen. I expect Samsung to announce the next version of the Galaxy Tab 7 inch tablet this summer. Blackberry is working on a 7 inch tablet. HP is planning to introduce a 7 inch tablet priced around $169. Microsoft is working on a design for a Windows 8 tablet in the 7 inch screen size as well.
