I freely confess to being a "free app of the day" junkie. It's practically the first thing I do after my morning shower.
Thanks for the heads up
Hell yes! I've already baten PvZ on three platforms already, why not another? lol

Agreed, it's the first thing I do when I wake up, though some of the apps aren't worth the effort (task pad had awful reviews).

Thanks for the heads up, bud! I've been waiting for PvZ to hit Android for ages. Quite frankly, I'm surprised it took them this long to get it out, considering how much money the title has made across all of the platforms (I know I have it on PC and iPod). Can't wait...plus it's free, you can't beat that!

I tend to skip a lot of the offerings, but I've gotten some great stuff because of FAOTD... stuff like Beautiful Widgets Pro, Business Calendar, and tons of awesome games I wouldn't otherwise have gotten (Grisly Manor, Pool Break Pro, Air Control...).
this is really awesome!

If only there was a way to automatically grab the app of the day. Just in case you forget or, gasp, had no Internet access!

it seemed that the app doesn't allow me to get anything from it as my region is not available. Anyway around this?

I used to get apps through appbrain market/fast web installer. You may want to try to get the region changing app through it.
What app should this be?
It's an american nook, with an american rom. So it should be Region America.
I have read that Amazon is checking the ip adress.
The only solution wold be a working orbot.
Happy happy joy joy
I'm a free app junkie as well... plus a plants vs zombies junkie. I put it away after I earned all of the achievements on the Steam version. Looks like I have to earn them all on the Android version now.
Happy happy joy joy!
This is sweet, I've been waiting for PvZ for Android system. Can't wait to get it
There's been a chinese version bouncing around but it has a tendency to crash, not to mention not looking particularly spectacular.
Gotta love Amazon's free app a day. I've been looking for a replacement for stock's Aces Bubble Popper app and today it's free on Amazon
Is there a list somewhere of what's coming up as a free app, or is it a surprise every day? (was hoping it was like their previewable goldbox Today's Deals for regular merch)

I think it's a suprise, to keep you checking in. This morning I literally launched the Amazon App Store as soon as I woke up, LOL!
How can I download from Amazon's store ?
I've downloaded and installed store.apk of Amazon , but when I click on "get app" , It annouced "...not for your region" .
May 30th and still no PvZ. It would have been nice if it came out today. Could have spent Memorial day playing. Man am I gonna be tickednif its not out tomorrow.
Well, it's out. It is tablet optimized. Runs great under CM7 (Phiremod).
(edit: according to the official description, PvZ is not tablet optimized. Still, you'd never guess that from playing it. Looks and plays great on a Nook Color. Like it was written for the platform)
ooh yeah, PvZ on my nook is nice, it being free makes it so much better!

I missed it
Don't worry, you didn't miss much. I normally wouldn't complain about something free, but since I've paid for a couple Concrete card games in the past, I'll just say that they've all been disappointing. I wouldn't pay for any of their stuff again. The stock solitaire is much better than the equivalent game (klondike). The on-screen controls on all their games are horrible. It's really hard to select the right card to shift around, and the scrolling action is terrible.

kashmir - you have got to be kidding when I guy puts these up for sale with the following babble:
"Hold on; let me play a sad song on the violin while you complain.
Day in and day out, I am smiling. There isn’t any specific reason in particular, but everything in my life right now is perfect. Not only do I have an amazing job with oodles of growth opportunity at Taco Bell. Right now I’m just making tacos, but my manager told me that he usually doesn’t have employees with my level of enthusiasm and that I could really go places within the company. I have this one idea … it’s sort of like the Crunchwrap Supreme, but it’s literally just two crunchy tacos inside the quesadilla tortilla. Genius, right? Not only would that taste incredible, but Taco Bell wouldn’t even have to buy any additional product … plus assembly would be a snap. My manager beamed when I told him that one.
Besides my awesome Taco Bell career ahead of me, I’ve got a lot more to be happy about. I recently got married to the most beautiful person I’ve ever met. We have two children and they’ve actually been aging at 1.5 times the normal rate, meaning that my 3 and 6 year old are actually 4 and 9 years old. I can’t wait for my 60th birthday when I’m going to be the same age as my first-born … every year after that she’ll be able to give ME advice about getting older!
You’d think that with all those things going on, my life couldn’t possibly get better, right? WRONG! Just last week I came into a windfall of HTC EVO View 4G Tablets. And when I say windfall I mean like 400,000 of them. Literally. I gave a few away to my friends and family, but mostly I’ve just been playing football with them. Boy I love football."
It may be humoruos, and maybe I'm humorless, but htis is wacked...

That's just blatantly copying woot's style.
Just ordered 1 from mobile.dailysteals.com
I want to know. Will all flyer roms work on this? I bought it to use as a wifi tablet. Its better then look tablet and kindlefire for $230 only! 32gb and you also have option for sd card! Maybe singlecore processor be problem but clocked at 1.5 I think it will do just fine.
So far, current flyer roms will not work on the View is the general answer.
Also, I've read on other sites (slickdeals) that some of these sites may take 1 or 2 weeks to ship. If you're cool with that then it's all good.
Bensoutlet just lowered the price to $219! I ordered it this morning for 239.. I emailed them to see if they would give a price adjustment since they lowered it just a couple hours after I bought it
Cool, It is now down to $219 on Bensoutlet.com. I just got mine today from the ebay deal. It got here in two days. I paid $240 and I am very happy. It is a nice tablet. My other tablet is the gtablet with bad viewing angles.
Whoops, right after posting this I see the post before this says the same thing.

Yes. Have tons of stuff on Amazon (uploaded my entire music collection). Have lots of movies on Amazon as well. Have 50 gb of space on dropbox. However, wifi not always accessible, and would like to carry music, books and manga with me. Would also like to have some of my favorite videos stored as well.
Daily Steals had it for $229
did anyone who ordered from ben's get shipping notification yet?
Just got my shipping notifications on 2 separate orders. The emails were in my spam box though.

Me too. I had ordered it when it was $239 and then just a few hours it dropped to $219. I emailed them and they said they are going to give me the $20 credit. So if you did jump on it and order from Ben's you might be able to get a $20 price adjustment credit. I'm not sure though if me ordering it just a few hours before they changed the price mattered or not but they did say they would issue me a credit for the difference
Anyone know where I can get another one of these? I bought one from 1saleaday.com but now I need to order a second!

Go to SlickDeals and set up an email alert of the HTC View. If a new hot deal is posted on there for one, you'll get notified.
Pay what you want for Osmos, Anomaly, and Edge. If you pay over the average which I believe is $5.65 you get World of Goo as well.
This is an awesome deal and it benefits a couple of charities as well.
These are direct downloads not through the android market.
http://www.humblebundle.com/
how would updates work if they are just sending you the apk?
do they provide updated apk's?
just curious as i haven't used it before.
EDIT: looks like they do provide an update.
hmm, i might just do this!
Done, I've been supporting the Humble Indie bundle for a couple of years now. Love it.
Btw you get both the regular version of osmos as well as the HD version for tablets.
I loved Osmos on my macbook when it first released, but it just works so beautifully on a touchscreen.
Such a wonderful game.
I got it just for Osmos HD. It's awesome on the Prime. Thanks again!
Best net speed Cheacker
which the best site to check our Internet speed.
Just bought from Humble Bundle for the 1st time and will be doing so in the future without a doubt; its a really cool/creative concept to get people to donate to help charities and devs. Anomaly looks pretty sick, though I haven't tried it out yet, but I found out after donating, though it says mobile version, when I downloaded Anomaly to my Prime it was the HD version for tablet.
Just a note for people looking but unsure as to how it works. When you purchase on the website it not only gives you a web link for the apks but also all the games can be downloaded on to any pc os. So your basically getting 8 games at what ever price you want to pay

Doh! I just bought Osmos HD in the market this afternoon...oh well, buying the bundle anyway! haha
the game from the bundle aren't market compatible though, are they? so no automatic updates?

not automatic, but they state that they will provide updated apk's on their site.
does anyone have weird freezes with anomaly HD?
it plays for a bit and then the screen freezes and shakes, but the game still runs underneath.
gonna try to wipe and reload as shadowgun is also giving me the same issue.
edit: so a wipe fixed it, i swear, gamestop does something to screw up these tablets, the first one i had from them also worked much better after a wipe.
Even if they arnt compatible im still very happy i got this. Didnt realise they were doing the android versions on the bundle! Bought one before, but this was early days. Always supported this as its a brilliant way to promote Indie games, yet at the same time raising money for charity.
Thanks for sharing
For those wondering about getting future updates, it appears that they are developing an android app that could notify you of updates and make the process simple (app market-esque?).

Regardless, last night I dl'ed and played all three of the new games.
Osmosis - my favorite, beautiful and fun.
Anomoly - like the spin on the "reverse tower defense" i will enjoy playing this game.
Edge - I keep falling off the edge, the movements don't seem to do what I tell them to. Not my thing.
Well worth a few bucks,

Got my thanks too, jumped on that deal when I saw your post, best 6 bucks I ever spent! World of goo and osmosis are amazing time killers, especially since I can load them on both my pc and my ATP.
Hey Guys
I just wanted to hear your thoughts on what you hope to put onto your home screens when Chameleon does get released in August?
I've donated to the good cause and here is hoping it's going to look as good as some of those prototype video's I've seen, wow!
what do you think would be the most useful to put on each screen?
I personally would like to dedicate a screen to a terminal ssh widget (like airterm or better terminal emulator), ezpdf/picture viewer widget for diagrams, world clock, calculator, and perhaps email on one screen.
For the fun stuff on other screens: Browser, stickit, Pulse, tapatalk/xda, netflix, wikipedia, playerpro, whatsapp, Fb, G+. Solid explorer, youtube and alot more!
Im looking forward to this new development into the android tablet UI, there will be alot of interesting developement into intergrating/optimising current and new widgets for Chameleon. Ultimately it saves the hassle of constantly switching or opening new applications all the time, it will be there right at your finger tips and I have a good feeling that it should be on overal great experience.
I'm just hoping I didn't waste $10 and that it is actually released.
I'm pretty sure it will make it, $35000/50000 and 19 days to go. To think they got that much in about 11 days + they would probably extend it if it gets close to 50k
it will be released even if the budget is not met.
if the budget is met it just means it gets released earlier.
I backed the kickstarter for the Chameleon but I am not even sure if I will end up using it. It certainly seems interesting and the demo looked nice but my needs don't change with the time of day, at least not as far as my tablet is concerned.
Doesn't matter though, I enjoy supporting innovative ideas and it only cost $10. I spend less than that in lunch every day
Once it comes out, I'm gonna ask /g/ to set it up, they always have great theme ideas.

Dam! Dont you hate it when that happens! I'm sure we've all been there
This is the game that first made me fall in love with video game violence. such a classic. I already got the free version, and I'm going to get the pay version just because I'm so happy to see this game brought back to life.
It plays great on our devices. Just gets a little warm as always.
Thread is now closed as it looks as if promo has ended.
