I just had someone contact me on craigslist saying the would trade me their Samsung Galaxy tab for my jailbroken 16g wifi ipad. Would you do it? I already have the nook color (cm7) and an Evo 4g. I don't really use my ipad but my NC is basically the same thing as a halcyon tab... right?

I wouldn't. The GTab is too much like the NC. Hold on to the iPad until someone offers to trade you for a honeycomb tablet. Yeah, he'll probably ask for your iPad + a little cash, but it'll probably be worth it.
I wouldn't do it either. The NC seems to be almost exactly the same as the Galaxy Tab. If you decided you did want to trade still, you should request some cash with that trade. Galaxy Tab is like 350, so I'd want at least $50 to make it equal.
They arent exactly equal
My Galaxy tab makes and receives phonecalls. Plus the built in GPS makes carrying 1 device better then carrying my nook and a phone.
Just my opinion of course.
Yeah that's what I figured. If I didn't have the NC I'd do that trade in a heartbeat. Just wasn't sure with the rumors of hc coming to the g tab if it would be worth it. But then again when the source for hc comes out the NC will have it fully functioning.

I can't imagine using something as big as the GTab as my phone... even with a bluetooth headset.
If you use it with a headset, incoming calls are no problem. (and yes, it is hilarious to phone with.... tried it!)
I would trade the iPad, but then again, I'm not exactly fond of Apple products in general.
ITunes makes me mental! I jailbroke it and its still not very customizable. Yeah it has the Cydia and winterboard apps but they're just themes and apps.... I think! I don't really pick up my ipad except for Netflix and now my Evo has it and hope the NC gets it soon. When Netflix comes to the NC my ipad will just gather dust (except the speaker sucks on the NC even with a custom kernel)

Erm...you're aware many of us are happily using NetFlix on our NCs since yesterday, right?
Rodney
got both nook and Gtab -
and yes they are very similar, and in fact NC overclocked is snappier than my GTab
BUT...
i make video calls with my Gtab to friends with iphone 4
and having a camera grew on me
and convenience of location based apps
but to the original poster - opt for trade with honeycomb

I got the Netflix app for my Evo last night and it works flawlessly but not on my NC. Is there an apk I'm not aware of?
Sent from my NookColor using XDA Premium App
you need to edit the build.prop file on the NC

Thanks! I don't really know ANYTHING about adb so I may have problems with this. I'll look around the forums or youtube about adb stuff and figure it out. What are the chances that the NC will get the official app? That I know how to do.
Found a YouTube video on androidcentral.com that made it simple. Took 5 minutes.

The Zio crapped out for the second time in less then two weeks so I went to replace it and lost it in the process. So now I have the Ascend 2. 2.3 is ok. Getting ready to root this. Spz0, Mattix, and everyone here keep up the good work. Hopefully we can meet up on another phone someday. Thanks for all your help! Good luck with 2.3, I took the easy way. This phone already has speed issues. Plus I miss my theme and Vtl already.

Hope you enjoy your new phone. And if you want to try speeding it up a bit check Zio Development for Juwe11's Ram Script which should work on all phones. I created a fairly detailed thread and also linked to the original post for more information about it.

I was seriously thinking about getting this one, I would like to hear some pros and cons on it. Of course I may just go big time and get the new Samsung indulge. 1gHz processor FTW !!!
Space is an issue. And being so new is as well. Although this has more space then the Zio. No root yet. Do have Netflix, Flash, and the latest version of VTL all working great. 2.3 is ok, nothing to special. It also has a sense like function. Which is cool.

Is the keyboard better then the zio? I have been scoping out the ascend 2 as well as the newer kyocera echo both looking good in my opinion. Echo only if flashable to cricket though. Im getting real tired of the zio keyboard and froyo i loved gingeryoshi 1.2 on my mt3g lol.

Sinisin, I'm going to pm you with a link so you can try to obtain root access on your new phone and you can probably port CM7 from the Ascend. And since it's built for a lower end system it should fly, that is after a bit of work on the kernel,

I don't have a computer to work on anymore. So no getting my hands dirty :-(. But it's running good on vtl and has space and processor lag issues. Definitely needs root and link2sd. Optimized kernel. Development support. But comes with swype and docs to go for free. Dtg is like a 15 dollar application. Courtesy of huawei. Screen could be tighter. Not so accurate. 1400mah battery is ok so far.

Hi guys. I picked up an original Moto Droid (well, had it, but not working on cricKet) for $70 at a Verizon kiosk at the mall. It was a steal. Like-new condition, and I flashed over to CM7. Pretty sweet. I still have my ZIO for now, and I will try to help out here as much as I can, but my wife is making me sell it after I'm finished putting the Droid together. :/
Anyway, I'm not too apprehensive about flashing experimental stuff, because I'll probably just flash back to stock before I sell it, so let me know, yeah?

My Zio dive bombed as well
I screwed my Zio up so I went out and bought the Samsung Indulge by Cricket to replace it. Mostly the 1ghz cpu in the phone was why I bought it.
So far totally stock it seems to be running really sweet with much much less mistyped words unlike the Zio with any keyboard you use with it.
Only problem I'm having now is trying to get it rooted and see about some custome roms for it. I found a website, http://androidforums.com/indulge-al...-scripts-indulge-r910-r915-win-mac-linux.html
that is working on such things as getting cwm and such working on the phone. I'm no where near knowlegable enough to figure that stuff out myself I tried miserably on the Zio.
If anyone has this phone from Cricket and knows how to get it rooted as well as getting the usb drivers to work for my pc to reconize the phone can you help me out with it?
Thank you in advance for any help. I'm still searching around trying to find out about the phone in hopes of what I may find in the forum here about it.

Any time I have for that, which is like none, goes to the A2 here. Zio is a back up phone at this point.

I too have crossed over to the ascend2 and after only half a day no root and complete stock this phone is way better than the Zio hands down. This is everything it should have been and more. My only complaint thus far is the screen resolution doesnt seem as crisp as the Zio but I can live with that. Now I am off to root it.

Root it then play with the LCD density in build.prop and maybe you can get a crisper display.

Is it me or does the spacebar look the size of an invisible ant? It's so tiny.. @ 4.06
Yeah it does but remember he's on the browser, so the ".com" button is taking up some space too. I bet without it, it looks great

we may never get to see this Keyboard. ='(
I saw this keyboard in action from my cousin's GS2 from Korea. It's insane. I can type on it all day at probably 95% accuracy. With my stock gingerbread keyboard, I'd be lucky to hit 80%
i really hope we can get a dev to port this for us NS4G users.
id really like to give it a try lol
Here's the link to the apk that i grabbed from somewhere else, i've pushed it to system/apps and changed permissions but not it's working, maybe it needs the touchwiz framework?

Looks awesome and very user friendly. I wonder what the chances are for a port for the Revo?

That is awesome...
It's only for Honeycomb Tablets though
It has already been ported to some Android phones i.e. thunderbolt been using it for months especially when that buggy clockwork came out and backups weren't working

Yeah, I noticed that it was ported for some phones. Would be nice to see it make it's rounds to ours, but this would definitely mean some "near brick experiences" would be in order.
Unfortunately, our guru in this field has been AFK for a while...
I would like to see it as well it is definitely faster

Looks nice - would certainly be a plus to have that for the Revolution
noob question will it support these themes, dying for that isms theme
I know it's my fault for even responding but...
What are you even talking about? Will it support what themes? There's not a MIUI ROM for the Vivid.

I am super keen on miui as well, and as it is based on CyanogenMod for drivers and behind the scenes stuff, yes cm must come to our phones first.
This was the one thing making me hesitate between the velocity and the galaxy nexus in the end, I figured it would be ported eventually and rolled the dice... hopefully I don't get snake eyes
I'll prolly end up with the next generation iPhone before this happens

You should have researched which phones of the current generation already support MIUI, SGS2 and and SGN already have it
