Hi, I'm enjoying my Android 2.2 tablet, wanted to see what (besides modding) the community is actually using their tablet for.

Mine?

Besides the obvious, email, facebook, surfing. I like the diversity of news/rss readers, music/podcast streaming and of course, youtube. I really never was satisfied with flash on my unit, never been as fluid as on my PC. However, that aside, the Witstech A81E has been solid and has been a very good device.

I'm not a big gamer, but Sudoku is excellent (far better than on my pocket PC) and highly portable in a 7" tablet. That may sound funny with just one game being a favorite.

Shoutcast radio is excellent (through Winamp)

What are you doing with yours?

Much of the same. Plus a little geocaching, games, and some music. Need to find more resources to get this baby to be alittle more versitile.

Hi -
I have had my Coby MID7024 (Android 2.2)about two weeks now and so far have done nothing exciting.

I have used it quite a bit as an ereader. It came with Aldiko 2.0 and I have added Kindle for Android as well as Cool Reader and FB Reader. This covers most of my reading except for PDFs- I can't seem to find a PDF reader that works very well.

Now that I have justified my purchase, I will try to learn something about this "thing".

Regards - Jabby

Mostly internet surfing, reading email.
Using the tablet has decreased my use of my desktop, even when at home.
Tethered to my cellphone, it is always on the internet.

I use mine for surfing the internet, dowloading from torrents and usenet while i'm on the go.
I also connect to my office computer and provide tech support for accounting software when I'm out of the office.
Watch Movies, listen to music, play games, reading e-books, e-mails, instant messaging

Initially I wanted an eReader, then I considered a nook color, and then I realized I could get a GTab for $50 more so I did. When i get it in a few days I'm planning on rooting/modding, then setting it up as a personal media hub... books, videos, music. Occasionally I'll use it to check email, Facebook and the like but that's my main usage intent for it.

Hey All,

New here and I got my first tablet today. There is a lot of stuff to read and I can't wait to get this thing rooted. It is an Archos 7, I guess the original...it was a free gift. Anyway, I look forward to reading these forums to figure out how to make this thing better...like my rooted EVO...

[fireant]

I use mine mostly for facebook and email. What I really wanna use if for is reading pdf files but its soo slow and sometimes wont even load them.
I believe this site can help me. Thanks in Advance

Well I havent quite gotten mine yet. I have a Velocity Cruz R101 on the way, got it with a coupon for $70! I'm hoping to learn a little about Android, I've been using iOS so want to check out the differences. Hope to be able to use the R101 to read Manga. I read a lot on my iPhone, but the screen is sooooo tiny! Not worried about the R101 not having 3G, as I can tether to the iPhone. Joined this forum to learn more about rooting and running different ROMs on the R101

I got my tablet a couple of days ago. It's mainly to take on holiday for email, facebook and to look for general info on the city/country I'm visiting.

[specialist83]

just ordered mine today. will be using it mainly for surfing the net, multimedia and also for conference calls. hopefully it'll reach me soon and i'll have a great experience with it..!

[Lula]

Watch movies and surf the net mostely.

[Parastie]

I use mine for everything! LoL
I'm a medical student, so I have lots of free medical apps loaded up as well as documents and presentations from class. I play games on it, watch tv shows on occasion. It's really really handy to have.

[Siegiftmacher]

I am using mine for the following.

Web browsing
Watching my documentaries (i love documentaries)
using it for graphics and photo editing (i do photography for a hobby with my 2 digtial cameras and my 2 VERY expensive SLR cameras)
use it for watching youtube videos
checking emails
I get news and weather reports for my area too
also use it to manage my bank accounts
read my ebooks with amazon kindle
and many more things xD

Dont really use it for games (i already know this product line wasn't designed as a gaming machine)

Just got this tablet 2 days ago and although not great, it does what i need it to do and for an entry level tablet it does perform quite well.

My table is for my kitchen as a stationary device on the wall to play music and watch tv if needed.
