Alright awesome that's my main concern.
Not sure the difference between watts and voltage as far as flavor is concerned. But I am assuming it's gotta give better flavor than my current set up.

Variable Voltage and Variable Wattage both achieve the same thing, increasing ending wattage at the coil, just to different methodologies. Resistance = A road and High way, voltage = gas/throttle, wattage = speed. Example and analogy is as such:
Stock Chevy Compact, you take a trip from your home to relatives in St. Louis, as you are heading down the highway at 75mph, to maintain speed going up hill you have to push down on the gas, as you go down hill you have to let off the gas, this would be variable voltage where you have to manually adjust the throttle yourself.
Same Model Chevy Compact with an upgrade package that has cruise control, you get up to cruising speed, set the cruise control to that speed, here the wattage like above is the speed limit, as the computer detects increased resistance going up hill or less resistance going down hill, it adjusts the throttle automatically to maintain speed for you.
Variable Wattage mods are a bit more accurate as well, but in simple principle, you set the wattage to your desired sweet spot, when you fire the coil, the chipset reads the resistance, sets the voltage for that desired wattage, then fires the coil.
OT
Both the Nautilus and the iStick are excellent step ups, and the iStick will allow future expansion upward for a little while if you progress.

Well said!! I think I may understand!
Now I just need to convince my husband this purchase is a good idea.

Me personally wouldn't recommend the nautilus mini for flavour I thought it was ok until I tried tanks like the subtank mini, they are on a different level
You have loads of options with it just in the one tank. You can sub ohm with the 0.5 coil or vape above ohm with the 1.2 and you also get a rebuildable coil if you ever decide to try it. The 1.2 is great for flavour. I built my first coil the other day at 1.2 and it's great. My nautilus won't be getting used unless in emergencies lol

i stick a good choice gives a little room to grow nautilus isn't bad had couple Triton is good too
Subtank Mini for sure. Way too versatile. You may want to go with the sub box kit...lots of options out there.
Thanks to all!! It sounds like subtank mini is way to go.
And recommend the 1.2 coil for flavor? Did I get that right?

If you're concerned about flavor and battery life, the standard 1.2s or newer vertical 1.5s are definitely the ones you're looking for. Both have very similar wattage ranges, the other coil needs over twice the power to produce good vapor. I have no idea how they compare flavor wise, but my guess would be the 1.2 might be slightly better if there's any difference at all.
The subox kit would be a pretty tough act to follow in terms of bang for the buck. If that's the route you go, you'll need a battery. While I prefer charging in a dedicated charger, it has a USB port and can be charged via USB. Oh yeah, it also has an RBA section, I know you have no desire to build right now, but its there should you ever decide to give it a try.
EDIT:
Here's a pretty solid review of the Subox kit by Phil. (BTW the newer versions have a spring loaded 510)

Guess who just picked herself up a subox mini!! 
won't be disappointed i have the same one I've been using it a lot lately its great!!!!Guess who just picked herself up a subox mini!!
So far so good!!!
It's a lot heavier than my aspire pen so that's taking some getting used to. But flavor is great! Wish I had multiple tanks to flavor hop.
