XCom Global now offers Nexus 7 and Nexus 10 rentals
Forget, for the moment, that the Nexus 7 probably is the most successful Android tablet to date, and that you can pick one up for just $199. And that if you travel, say, to Europe, there's a better than average chance that you'll be taking your tablet with you. But let's say you left yours at home for whatever reason -- or you've yet to purchase one, or maybe you want to give the Nexus 10 a shot. XCom Global, the company that can hook you up with Mifi service in some 170 countries worldwide, is now offering Nexus 7 rentals for $1 a day. That's an introductory price, and costs will bump up to $2 a day for the Nexus 7 and $3 a day for the Nexus 10.
That, of course, is added on to whatever you're paying XCom for data as well. Full presser's after the break.
