Where were you able to get a working apk for Zinio? I couldn't find anything on their website about android support. I really want to use their service, but without an app for my TF I just can't get myself to take the plunge.

Seemed to be installed as part of the 3.1 release (was certainly on the leaked version)

Well, that just makes me even more excited for the update.
(Just got the tablet end of last week, so I'm still in that hesitant stage before rooting / custom romming her)
It is on the 3.1 that Roach posted.
Did any of you guys used Zinio yet? I would like some feedback...
I used it on the iPad and it was good. Transformer is coming today so I'll post how it works here.

I would greatly appreciate it. I really enjoy me some mags, but it's a pain in my (you know) to keep track of all those print copies, not to mention how much space they take up.
Zinio looks like my solution, I just can't do it without an app for my tf you know? But yeah, if you could post your thoughts I'd be quite grateful.
Yeah it came with the 3.1 update and it works fine although the text has been a bit blurry a couple of times but it seemed to sort itself, there's not a lot of options either its very basic but i love reading my mags subscriptions on my transformer so it does me fine

Yea, was just going to post the link myself as well. I'm not sure it's exactly the same thing, but I love Pulse for all my online reading at least. Just about every site has an RSS feed these days
Just noticed that I can't view my magazines if im offline, that's a bit rubbish

Well u have to download that they can be viewed offline. Also the zinio version that ships with the 3.1 update no longer works since there is a version on the market the one pre loaded in the tf101 is no longer supported by zinio and doesn't work is now u have two apps in the app drawer which is kinda anoying

That is really annoying. On another note, I kind of wish this app wasn't included in the first place. I have no need / use for it, but don't wish to root the TF, just to remove it. Although, I should admit that I have found most of the other "bloatware" apps that have been included quite useful (Polaris, for example)
Nook app
I've been using the Nook app for magazine reading. Images are sharper than Zinio in the few mags I've tried and the "Article View" is really useful. The only con is that the app is a little slow. Hopefully the 3.1 overclock kernels are not too far away (release the codes Asus, lol).

when I upgraded my eu tab to the latest eu rom the ebook app was missing. I know it's not much, but I will pay 10 american dollar to the first who can let me install it, and i will go to 15 if you can fix the landscape impagination while using pixel density.
I know there are other ereader apps around and i used and paid many of them. but I still prefer the samsung one, with the beatifull old book skin, dictionary lookup and double page impagination on landscape. it was almost as good as ubook
Edit:
I managed to install the nook ereader, and now I'm in ebook heaven.
this is why I take back my offer for the Samsung ebook. apk

I too lost the ebook app after flashing the EU firmware. I got it back - I think by doing a factory reset via settings/privacy (I say "I think" because I had a nightmare with clockworkmod and went through a number of steps to get everything back).
Try that first before spending any money .
Id be surprised if anyone here would take your money for this. If I had my laptop (currently away for repairs) id take the apk from system/app and upload it for you.
Hopefully someone will do it and not steal your money *nudge nudge*

I think we just need a deodexed eReader app. There's a thread in the development forum with deodexed tab apps but the eReader app isn't between them.

Yeah on the tf its an additional app.
On my nexus one out actually replaced the market. Guessing its not HC optimized yet
Looks like I will have to wait a little longer for google movies.
looks pretty sweet I guss well have to wait for the movies though:/ but is it just me or is it a little bit laggy?
it looks like not optimized for tablet, how can I revert to stock market app?

go into settings -> applications -> all -> market -> uninstall updates
Does anyone who's used the new market know if Google have improved
a) The damned search engine
b) A way of differentiating "tablet optimised" or "universal" apps from phone only ones?
(I know it'll probably be redundant by the time Ice Cream Sandwich comes out - but still)
I see movies on my phone
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
Has anyone tried it who is not rooted? While using temp root on my evo3d I don't have the options for movies but as soon as I reboot and loose temp root I do.
May be the same with our tablets. The movies only show without root.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
Ok, I was able to verify that even without Root that the movies don't show up on the tab.
This is a bit frustrating.
On my EVO 3D that had temp root, the new market simply had no spot for the movies but I remembered that Google said rooted devices wouldn't be able to use that function. I then rebooted my EVO 3D and voila, I now am able to preview/rent movies on the market so I was hoping that you guys just had not tried that yet here since there is already permanent root for the transformer.
How is this not an option on our tablet? I don't get it.
There is an article that was written a couple of months ago about Google Movies which might be of interest for some people.
The new market is supposed to be for phones. http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2011/07/new-android-market-for-phones.html Read the title.
I have a rooted MT4G and the new market works just fine. I even have the movies tab, btw I like the new market, it looks great.
How is working on the TF ?

This works great on my Samsung Fascinate and looks nice. Haven't tried it on my TF yet but will later today.
Hey the next market is for phones. Wouldn't install it on your tablets, it's not even tablet optimized. Step backwards.

Its working better than the original.
You can unistall if you want to dont replace your original when you install so that means that you will have 2 markets.

another Facebook app optimized for Honeycomb has just been released.
NOTE: If you have FriendCaster for Android (non-optimized; phone version) on your tablet. If FriendCaster Tab doesn't download successfully, you need to uninstall the phone version.
First impressions, it looks very similar to FriendMe.
I keep getting the same notifications on FriendMe over and over and over again. Maybe Friendcaster will work better...

Pictures also load ultra fast aswell however messages are borked for now

Well resolver has Splashtop Remote HD v1.1.0.6 pre-installed in my Cloud. it should show up in your installed applications if you hit all. The name will just be Splashtop Remote but the icon will say HD
Nope. I only had the non-HD version installed and I didn't see anything saying that the HD app was already installed. Either way, I was eyeing with purchasing the HD version anyway and the deal was too good to pass.

Ya the one that comes with it is by no means the latest version. I bought the new one and its sooo much better. actual mouse tracking and lights out mode!
Great! Since I've never used it I don't know. Usually I sit at my PC when I need to work so I considered it a waste of energy to work on my tab when the PC is running anyway But with family wanting to spend time with daddy, having a mobile work horse is definitely a bonus!

In case you forgot, you can run Google Chrome on your ICS device now (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.android.chrome&hl=en). There are some goodies there which are not available in stock browser and you might like it better.
Agreed, it is smother than the stock browser, plus, you have all your chrome bookmarks automatically synchronized. Also, you can access the pages you have opened in other computers and devices (which is cool and scary at the same time).

It's by far the greatest advantage of Mobile Chrome... being reading something in my laptop, then leaving and continuing to read the same thing, effortlessly, is pretty cool.
Or if I run into a page some cool Android app while on my computer, instead of e-mailing the link, I just open Chrome Mobile, and there's the page.

Google's new Chrome web browser for Android will never get support for Adobe Flash, Ars Technica reports.
This doesn't come as much of a surprise, since Adobe previously stated that it was finished working on Flash for mobiles.
So effectively, mobile Flash is officially on the way out. Even though Adobe itself has given up on it, that hasn't stopped plenty of manufacturers from continuing to advertise Flash as a selling point for Android.
Ars Technica deftly points out:
When Google eventually moves to replace the default Android browser with Chrome in future versions of the Android platform, devices that run the operating system will likely no longer be able to play Flash content in the browser.

SkyRocket [ICS The Real Thing Rom]
Last I read, Flash was going away. In favor of HTML5? So not everyone will be supporting it in the future.
I'm using Chrome Beta also. It's not 100% ready for prime time, but works pretty well so far. And the fact it syncs bookmarks with my home Chrome browser is HUGE for me.
But I wish it were easier to add mobile-only bookmarks. It's not super friendly in that area yet. I love Dolphin browsers home page where I can add quick bookmarks.
So OK, how is it that I can't find it on Play? Is it because I'm on superlite ICS and if so, is there a way I can trick Play to show me everything?
I tried Chrome and it is ok, but has handy features missing. I'll stick to stock, which has all my Chrome bookmarks synced to it anyway, it is super fast.

I'm assuming you're on GB still since you mentioned you tried a couple of months ago. Using the ICS browser it automatically syncs your chrome bookmarks.
