Coming to Amazon in the next two weeks. Will be a "free app of the day" on the day it is released:
http://phandroid.com/2011/05/16/plants-vs-zombies-coming-exclusively-to-amazons-appstore-may-30th/
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!
Hello all! I just wanted to see if anybody here had the STM Folio case that's sold on the official Sony store? I think that's the one I want! Though, its backordered. If y'all do, please post a review somewhere.

I've got the STM Skinny from GearZap. I had it for iPad 2 until I saw the light, it's a really good case.

I have the STM Case thats shown on the Sony Store (That one says its for Tablets, this one says Ipad) I'm pretty positive they're exactly the same.

Apparently they jumped to ~$24, I paid 16.83 a couple weeks ago.

That case is more like the "bag" type. They have one in the Sony store made by stm, but this http://store.sony.com/webapp/wcs/st...toreId=10151&langId=-1&partNumber=STMDP030001 is the one im talking about. Its been backordered for a while now, though its showing an estimated ship date of 11/16 now! Too long of wait for me.

Ah! Yeah I don't have the skinny, sorry about that.
Hi! I wanted to order that case too. Since it's on backorder, I went ahead and searched the web for similar cases. I found roocase(dot)com and went ahead and placed an order on Amazon for the executive case. I haven't received the case yet, but they look pretty nice.

I noticed one of the photos is a misrepresentation. The one that's positioned so you can type. We know the screen doesn't rotate when you have the thick part of the tablet at the bottom.

Thanks for posting this, I have been looking as well. I noticed the first case you mention got a 4 star review on Amazon, one star removed because the case blocks the IR. Please let us know if that issue is present on this case as well. If not, I'll order that one too.
I'm not even sure about the roocase and IR remote?! Has anyone tested it yet?

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0..._1?ie=UTF8&m=A2IHZFOHOQ0WG8&tag=5336653508-20
Going by one of the pictures, the opening for IR seems to be very big (instead of a pin hole). That's why I went with this one. We'll see.

I just got the ultra slim version, and I have to twist the tablet at an odd angle to use the IR feature. I'm going to return it.
http://www.amazon.com/rooCASE-Ultra-Leather-Android-Tablet/dp/B005PQCHJG/ref=pd_cp__0
I think this version may solve the problem, since there is a wide opening at the top.

So this site lists the View for $399, but when you hit Buy Now, the price comes up as $299 plus $20 for shipping (credit to SlickDeals for the tip).
I just paid $255 for a WiFi Flyer. I have no desire to activate this thing on Sprint, so essentially, this would serve as a WiFi Flyer, too. However, it's black (which I like better than the silver), and it's got double the memory. It looks like the View gets hardly any support from devs, though. Is it worth the extra $65 bucks to pick this up?
Mainly, will the leaked Honeycomb updates work on the View?
EDIT: Down to $275 plus shipping now. I couldn't resist.
What site?

So you bought the View from Reagan for $275 - I am very curious to see a) if you get it and b) if it is sealed brand new
Yeah, I am, too. One guy said he picked 2 up directly and they were as described and able to be activated on Sprint.
I'm really hoping that the official Honeycomb update comes out soon. If it doesn't, I'll probably resell the View. Not sure I want a tablet without support from the community behind it.

Looks like you have to use PayPal to purchase it, so at least you are covered by their guarantee.

That's the reason I went ahead and purchased. It shouldn't be too hard to dispute it with PayPal should that become necessary.
Having had a few HC 3.2 tablets - Acer, Archos - I prefer the speed and stability of HTC's Gingerbread with Sense. If HTC does bring out HC for Flyer/View - all well and good, but not a big deal to me - I love the Flyer the way it is.

Well, really, the reason I want support is because I'd like to see ICS on it at some point.
Plus, the expanded pen capabilities of Honeycomb seem sweet, since that is one of the primary features of this particular tablet.

Will do. I got a shipping notification already. I'm traveling for the next few weeks, though, so I won't actually be able to check it out until next month.
Went ahead and purchased one from this site since the flyers are literally unavailable locally. Purchased monday and paid for 2 day ups. Just got it 5 minutes ago BNIB. Was sketchy on ordering but since paypal was used I wasn't worried about getting my money back. The site and price (as long it lasts) is legit.

Sweet. Good to know. That's what a couple of other reports have said, too, so I don't really expect to find any issues when I get mine. It was delivered today, so now all that remains is for me to get back into town and open it up.
LOL ouch on the unsupported side of things. Let's just say im waiting since something is dropping really soon that would make a gingerbread kernel a waste of my time. I may compile one but it will be more practice than anything else.

Sounds like you know something I don't. If this thing gets Honeycomb, then I'm definitely keeping it. I can deal with a rooted system on a stock ROM, but I didn't really want to be stuck with Gingerbread for the life of the thing.
In my defense, I didn't see your ROM until after I found this deal. I'll probably try your ROM out, and if you develop something for HC, I'll definitely try that out, too.
199.99 new line activation thru a third party sprint store. Sprint data is good where I'm at and like u said double the memory. All together pen+tab =270.00= me geekin out til my girl leaves me LOL. 20.00/mo for 1gig data...not the best but certainly the lowest option out on the market as far I've seen. I have only used 62 kb and sure its gonna stay there for a while. Plenty of WiFi.

Not bad. No way I'll be signing a contract with Sprint again (at least for a few years), but if it works for you, then great!
Thought I would share this if anyone is looking for a flyer. TechforLess is selling open box and refurbished flyers for $179 and $199. I have no affiliation with this site but I'm hoping to help someone since people are still looking for these. This is a steal and I would order one if I did not already have one.

If you go through my coupons com, then you can get ten percent off, but you better act fast because the site is getting hammered and stock is going fast
Nice, I just picked up a second Flyer. Hmmm..Why did I just do that? Oh well I'm sure I can find someplace to use it. Price was just too good to pass up. Good Pre-Black Friday Deal.
Picked one up earlier tonight, can't wait for it to get here. Got the TouchPad up for sale now haha.
Took a risk on this as well. Hope it pans out.

Because it's simply an awesome tablet?
I wish we had things like that over here...
I use this as a Daily internet portal, listening to music on Spotify, ebook, sketch design concepts, taking notes for work. Anytime I travel, this Little tablet is the one thing I take with me on the plane. I don't really play that many games on it, some and it does a decent job for that. So I think these Specs will be fine as long as the Apps I use doesn't require a Quad-Core. Might gift another tablet to myself, but probably sell it to a co-worker who might need the all around awesomeness of HTC Flyer at cost.

Just got in for the $199 Open Box HTC Flyer. I'm so glad I waited. I came so close to buying this afternoon and then I went to work at 4pm to 2 am came home and it was $100 cheaper then the $299 I was gonna pay.
FYI: I just checked eBay and they are still selling for around $290 used.
Looks like they sold out of the refurbs that were $180.
OUT Of Stock but got mine with 3 left.

Same here. It was $295 and I almost bought one but went to Best Buy to ***** at them in person for jerking me around. I come home about an hour later (found a friend camping outside Best Buy) and it was $199.49! I couldn't click buy fast enough. Thank you Best Buy but you still suck.
I also bought one from techforless. We will see what happens. They got good reviews on Google shopper.

I live in Colorado Springs and have purchased from Tech for less many times, to all that have doubts, I would say you have nothing to worry about and will receive a quality product for the price, the reason they did this is because they had over 800 yesterday and when they have a large amout of inventory they do what is called a fire sale and that is how they move a lot of merchandise in a very short period of time. I wish I would have seen the sale would have liked one myself, OH WELL I guess I just missed out. Congrats to all that got one you got a heck of a deal!!!

I am looking to purchase a Gray keyboard dock for the Transformer Prime TF201. If you happen to be one of the ones that is stuck with a dock and no tablet I would like to purchase it from you.
Please no inflated prices ... I am willing to pay $190.00 for it which should easily cover the original price, taxes, and expedited shipping to me.
I'm buying this for my daughter for Christmas so any help would be appreciated!
Just reply here or PM me if interested.
UPDATE: Already purchased one from New Egg ... thanks everyone!
I don't think anyone even has the dock yet, sorry. If they did, I don't think breaking even on expenses is worth having gone through all the trouble of finding one.
Given that docks are tougher to come by than tablets, good luck getting one with no premium.

The docks will arrive at online stores on January 5th. There are a whole bunch arriving then.
