Is there an app that will do this? I would like to be alerted to all notifications that show up on my phone. I know there's one that does SMS but, I'm looking for something more versatile. I rarely use SMS.
Could Tasker accomplish this?

+1 for this, would be very handy
syncsms, tablettext, there are several of them.
Try GtalkSMS from the market. Uses gtalk and will do what you want and more. Was one of the first apps i installed on my prime.

I don't totally follow that app. Do you load it on your phone and tablet and the tablet can get notifications of what is going on on the phone? So if you get an SMS or phone call to your phone it tells you on your tablet?
I agree with the OP that it would be cool or nice to get a Growl notification or something in the notification bar on the tablet if I get either a text message or a call - nothing more than that do I need.
Tablet Talk is what I am using and it works great. I think I paid $2.99 for it but it has been well worth it. It needs to be on both your phone and tablet so check it out in the market to see if it might be of use to anyone.
If you sign up for Google Talk, and link your Google Talk account with your cell # you can have text messages sent to your cell show up on your tablet (or anywhere else really). I have used it and it works great.
Same here with Gtalk. I've used that on my phone, and then my desktop and now my tablet. And any message I get will show up on all three places. It can be a little flaky when it comes to showing whos online (meaning sometimes it will show someone as online but they aren't), but other than that it works very well.
It seems a lot of you are only talking about SMS. A lot of people don't even use SMS these days.
I pretty much exclusively use WhatsApp for all my texting. So, I'm looking for something that will send me Whatsapp notifications. Really, an app that could push notifications to my tablet my from apps I pre-select would be ideal. I guess nothing like this exists at the moment.

Thank you for this. It's a very nifty app once you can set it up. Wish it had a GUI that would do the communicating for me. Unfortunately the incoming call alert does not work.
Have you figured out the Tasker integration? I can't get it to work.

Tablet Talk seems like a viable solution too. Though it wouldn't be of much use to me since I'd essentially be paying for the ability to get incoming call alerts.

This sounds pretty clean compared to installed 3rd party apps. I have sms enabled in labs but I have no idea how to get my # linked to gtalk. Can you point me in the right direction?

does this affect how sms are received on phone? i really like go sms for texting, and dont want something else taking over or double notifying me
I currently use tablettexts but mysms is a bit **** compared to gosms... especially not being able to send texts when you don't have any signal (instead of queuing them to be sent when you do) so GTalkSMS sounds like an awesome solution - can you use it from the UK though? I'm having a bit of a problem setting it up - is there a guide or anything anywhere?
SyncSMS will transfer your sms notifications to your tablet

Nothing like Google Voice. Sucks that you don't get a threaded view like other SMS apps. It sorts the messages by days. But wouldn't trade it for any other app. Nay sayers should give it a shot.

Ok. I'm a salesman at a car dealership and I'd like an app to log my customers.
This is simple enough, but what I need to find is an app that I can take a number down in my phone along with a name, and a short bit of text. And then send it to my tfp.
Any ideas?

It seems like it would be a pain in the ass to use excel. Maybe not though. I'll have to try it as well. I am a car salesman as well. I'd like an app to track previous months and currents month statistics. I know iOS had one but I cannot find one for Android. Anyone know of one.

Try searching the Market for 'crm' there are decent sales tracking apps that might work.
Excel sounds like a pain, the gmail idea could work it just gets hard to keep track of ( I did it on my phone for awhile), but evernote sounds like a good one, i'll try it out.
Excel would work for the statistics I would imagine.

When you add customers make sure you add them to a separate group so that they don't show up alongside your "normal" contacts.

if you havent done so on sprint. get on Google voice.(its free for sprint) u can use the official Google voice apps on your tablet to send text thru wifi, also received them.
i tried a bunch of apps on my touchpad but never found one that works as good as google voice. my touchpad and phone are both set up with google voice and it's integrated with my sprint phone number so no weird number to deal with. works great for me. only thing is once you integrate, no more going back to vvm unless you call sprint to get it set back up.

Just an fyi: If you want the push notifications, you have to press the version number like 10 times or something (I didnt count I just hammered it until the option became available lol)
TexTab without question. I love it, and the UI is nice and simple (uses BlueTooth). It uses your messaging app in that it uses your phone's signal and leaves the text message in the history of the conversation on your phone.

ey! do you know if this trick works with viber too?
Yahoo Messenger. You can text people with numbers or msg people with YM.
Text Plus works for sending/receiving texts from any number. Can't send/receive pics though. I wish Textfree would make their app compatible with tablets AND add good as their Apple version. I use Textfree on my iPod 4 an iPod 4(unactivated, so both are wifi only devices) an I can text an call for free, it's AWESOME. I just tether my Evo 3D to my Apple devices when I leave the house and they're just like a phone with a carrier plan, it's great. I'm really hoping Textfree steps up their Android app soon to allow calling as their Apple version is better than all other text/call apps on Apple. Even if it's not available for tablets on the Play Store, there's always ways around that...
Edit: for anyone interested in using Textfree on their phone, the developer is Pinger (just so you aren't digging through a thousand search results on the Play Store looking for it, lol)

I just set this up using DeskSMS / TabletSMS. The text messages send via my phone (and are also visible on my PC via a Chrome plug-in). I am very happy with it.
Of course it requires the phone to have an active data connection as well as the tablet, so that might not be what you are looking for.
Is there way to use tablet talk without the headset? Talk through the tablets microphone and hear through the speakers?
