thanks for the reminder! it's friday! looking forward to a 3-day weekend!

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.
Coming to Amazon in the next two weeks. Will be a "free app of the day" on the day it is released:

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!
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.

I can't find the link at the my coupons site. I'd like the extra 10 percent off. Is it over or does anyone have a link?
FYI tech for less also has these on sale at Amazon
looks like the coupon is down now =(, i have a sad feeling that some of these orders may be getting cancelled
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 got it because of you moe, thank you VERY much.
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.
I saw this link on youtube and posted it on here right away, couple days later the owner of the video posted in my thread. A big thanks to "Kornyone" for doing work so quick. You can follow his progress here:

That's pretty awesome. I'm just waiting for mine that I purchased on ebay to show up. I can't wait to see what else we can do!
Same here, I should have mine by Tuesday but I don't have a device with JellyBean so I hope they ship out the N7 soon!
congrats, can't wait.
I have two Qs I can't use. Don't have JB yet.
Very cool! Can't wait till I get mine from Ebay!

looking good, I would be tempted to order one now if it wasn't so expensive, just cant justify the price and the last time I looked it wasnt available in the UK yet either.
I am hoping after the release the price will drop enough for me to be able to justify buying it.
good work! I am going to be monitoring the Nexus Q development to see if something ends up convincing me to buy it.

Ditto. That's what I am waiting for before I purchase it.
That's pretty awesome work. I can't wait for more people to get Q's and see what we can really do with them.
It's too bad they don't have a cablecard/tuner built in!
Ohhai!

This is awesome. The Nexus Q is like a Trojan Horse, except inside it's filled with sweet jelly beans. I can imagine using this with the Leap from leapmotion.com. Interacting with the Q using hand gestures... that would be cool.
