Hey there
listen! I really like honeycomb an I hate iOS but the iOS apps are so beautiful and the honeycomb apps are kind of lame!
Is there an app for honeycomb like the "bamboo paper" app for ipad?
(google it!)
and what note taking (handwriting) are you using?
I haven't heard of anything, so I am interested myself. I just bought a stylus and am looking to use it in something other than Sketchbook Pro. But as far as that goes it is a nice app, you may be able to use it for note taking.
steel looking for an app! sketchbook pro is good for the sketching, doodling, painting and basically art and stuff!
i need a note taking app !
TabNotes looks and works quite good.
i just searched "handwriting" in the market and tried out three different apps similar to bamboo paper. They all seem to work pretty well.
The three I tried:
Genial Writing
Handrite
MyLetter
I have tried the Touchwiz on my TF.
And there is a tool that can let you take notes by either handwriting or using keyboard.
Also, the tool is movable like the windows at PC.
You can call that tool whenever and wherever by not affecting your current app.
That's really cool.
I hope the TouchWiz UI for TF would be updated soon.
its working good? i think i might put touchwiz on my tf too!
is it stable?
I like tabnotes the best, and in second place i put makenotes. i have also tried genial and handrite but the above two are much better imo.
been using genial, tab notes, maple paint, and love them all. Just started using free note and am really enjoying it the best.
Try free note.
Handrite search on the market

i use free note.
so there STILL isn't an app that can do both handwritting and text in the same note?
wow, just, wow
EDIT:
There is now, it's called FreeNote
thanks idontknowu2
not entirely sure I get you but I use freenote and I'm pretty sure it does both of those, just confused because freenote was mentioned and you still asked this...?

It is not compatiable with TF??
MakeNotes is by far the best I've used. It's clean and simple, but does everything I would want (other than letting me enter text with the keyboard). It even gives you a spot to rest your palm while writing. Definitely what I've been waiting for.

wow! just found the best app on the planet!
thank you so much!
Well, MakeNotes is pretty good, but is still a work in progress. The palm pad area is an amazing concept. However, making the notes portable / convertible to PDF will be even more awesome. Also, scrolling is non existent(Or it may be that I am dumb and I dont know how to). TabNotes is the best note taking app rite now. Simple, yet powerful.
There is an App called Whiteboard, but it force closes constantly atleast for me. So, wouldnt recommend it.

I want one that syncs with Google Reader and that's pretty much my only requirement.
I've used Feedr, NewsRob, and PureRSS, but want something better.
What do you guys use?
I know it isn't much help to you, but I use News Rob Pro and love it. I want to find one with a good widget that gives me a small summary of the articles.
Maybe try this one BlueRSS http://bluegorilla.fr/blog/?page_id=32

I've tried all of them and I keep coming back to NewsRob.
What features do you want that none of those three have?
"Better" is too subjective. Need more details on specific features.
I am using gReader and FeedSquares, haven´t decided which one to use.
Greed is the only one that works almost as it should.
i use gReader. updates every other day almost... thats a good sign that the dev is working hard on this app. its the cleanest looking app for me... though it looks like an iphone app.
using newsrob here, don't know what more you could want..
Try "A Good Reader" I just tried it and personally like the look. Looks like its a new app.

Pulse was just released yesterday and I picked it up. Far and away the best RSS reader for Android. It can synch with your Google Reader account as well. The only bummer is that it can only hold 20 feeds. It is $1.99 well spent.
As you might have heard, TweetDeck has released its Twitter app for Android after what seems to be ages of development, at least for me, as I’ve been dying for this. Twidroyd has long been, at least in functionality, best Twitter app for Android, but TweetDeck hopes to change that by bringing the best Twitter app for PC to Android. Interestingly, its not a direct port of their iPhone app, rather, its been built from the ground to up to showcase the changes that TweetDeck hopes to roll out across its other platforms. I’ve gotta say, its looking great, but not quite there yet. Check out the video for a demo of the great functionality as well as the missing functionality. All in all, though, great job TweetDeck.

Tweetdeck is nice, the font size is annoying though

Naw it's definitely not the best quite yet. It's lacking A LOT feature wise but it's on the right track. It's been the main one I've used since it came out yesterday. Just might replace my Twitter for Android in the end.

TweedDeck desktop is awesome. Can't beat it imo. TweedDeck for Android... another story. As someone said above, they have a long ways to go. ALTHO one think I do like, is the smoothness of the app. Thats all tho... I'm sure over time it will get better, but they have lots of catching up to do.

Well said. Thats exactly how I feel. The app is really smooth and I like that it brings you back where you left off in every column, but they've got a lot of work to do. But with their apps for other platforms, I know they can do it.

I dig it. It's not fully featured, but it is really smooth. I'll keep it to test it out for now, but I'm not getting rid of my primary twitter/fb apps. I'll keep those and reserve judgment on this app until the official release is out.

Don't complain
To all of you that complains about Tweetdeck for Android. It's still beta and not the finished application. I can assure you there is frantic activity over at Tweetdeck support, and I don't doubt that this will be a killer app
I think it kinda sucks at least right now, all the other Twitter apps I've tried are better and actually have features. And it won't stop sending Twitter notifications which I don't want as it's constant and annoying. Oh and it's ugly..haha. I'm sure it will get better though. I like Twicca myself.

In the app, hit Menu>>Manage Columns and turn off the notifications you dont want
TweetCaster lets you to disable all background notifications.

Thanks to whoever told me how to turn off notifications. I wasn't getting them then randomly this morning they started coming in. I just use Pure Messenger to read FB/tweets in one column and open Twicca/Facebook from Pure Messenger to post something. I like it because it's a widget. Is Tweetdeck going to put out a widget? I didn't notice one looking through my widgets.
I have it working on my Droid x its awesome. But some apps that came with it don't work. Other than that the 3d ui looks great. Runs great. Is anyone else using this app? If so what do you think of it?
This has been labeled as warez in xda since it's a leaked beta. But I suppose people can talk about it as long they don't share the apk file..
I've played with it for a while but because I can't choose the default phone and browser app, I stopped playing with it. Also eats lots of ram.

Did you get the gallery app, weather page that comes with it to work?
Yeah i like the look of SPB more than Honeycomb. I hope its doesn't get bought by RIM like they did to TAT.
Its faster than ADW EX for me.
Anyone get it to work with the evo?

I really doubt that's going to happen. SPB is a big company from what I understand (google them).

Anyways, I did try it out, but had to remove it since I kept getting unending "Activating..." and reloading.
But my impressions while I did use it were:
3D look very cool. But not especially useful.
Instant tap and click widgets very useful and great idea.
Lack of app drawer is undesirable.
It has some cool stuff, but isn't anything "groundbreaking" imo. SPB charged consumers about $30 for this on WM and Symbian I believe, doing the same on Android would be quite insane (considering it doesn't add any huge benefits like it did for those OS). I'm curious to see what they plan to charge, and it's something I could consider using as my default launcher... but nothing truly fantastic about it imo.
I used SPB at great lengths with my Windows phones. It was a resource hog, but it still ran smooth and looked awesome.
Didn't know they were actually working on Android...cool
Yep says its not compatible with my device.
works with the epic unfortunately.....

It takes forever to load on my Samsung I9000, but works well once it does. Amazingly smooth and the widgets look great. Could take some getting used to though!

I write awfully slow on this, but I guess you'll learn!
That looks terrible. It can only really be used with one hand and would be terrible to use while walking. It's cumbersome and not really that intuitive as well unlike Swype. I can't see this catching all at all.

It was almost a year ago when they tried to get into the market with their unusual keyboard, and until now it's a big fail. It's not a comfortable keyboard imo, although I appreciate this 'out of the box' kind of thinking.
Personally I don't like it!! I feel so stupid trying to write one simple word!!! Takes too much time to write!! FAYOUL!!!
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
That looks terrible, just my $.02.
At least when I first saw Swype, I saw the potential in it. And after a few weeks of awkward learning, it was by far and above my favorite keyboard on android. I can't see 8Pen even being an option for me.
Wow that looks terrible
My 14 YO daughter uses this keyboard and her words per minute are incredible. I tried it and can't get it. I think it has to do with my mind being so programmed for QWERTY. The pattern for creating words with this keyboard is so different that I have to think of every step. My daughter, on the other hand, has used alternate keyboards for so long (i.e. T9) that her brain was able to adapt very quickly. Personally I prefer the swipe style keyboards. My favorite is ShapeWriter before being acquired by Nuance. The current market version sucks, Google for version 3.0.9.
interesting video and an interesting app. :heads up:
I tried it and hated it... I don't feel like I should have to completely reprogram the way I think just to use a keyboard. I guess eventually you'd get it, but who wants to spend a few weeks learning to use a keyboard?

I'm with davtfor here. I'm not super slow but I'm a lot faster using better keyboard. I used 8pen exclusively for about 3 weeks and I'd still have to periodically have to lift my thumb to find a character.
But it is an interesting experiment. I might use it for another couple of weeks again.
So I've actually had this in the market for a few months now but never actually posted here. This was one of the first apps I created and it just sort of grew and got an assortment of features. So if anyone wants to give it a go here is the market link:

If anyone finds this app too complex, do try my other app I've developed to address this issue. It has nearly all the same features though very easy to use. Here is the xda link:

This was the first app to make the App of the Week feature on my site. It's still one of my favorite apps I've ever used. Definitely the best notepad I've ever seen!

Not yet though it's planned. Just a matter of finding the time. Working on a few other things also For now however you can create backups easily via extras>backup & restore.
Pro vs. Lite?
What's the difference between the Pro and regular version?

Was the first app I bought for my new Galaxy SII. Crazy amount of features.
+1 for sync! PLEEEEEEASE!!!!
Edit: Nevermind.
Love this POWERFUL app. But love to have the following changes in the upcoming version.
1. Memorize the settings selection in Extra. E.g. "from" and "to" language for Google Translate, Currency converter.
2. Sorted list for Currency. (e.g. ANG > BHD > VEF ...etc). It's quite hard to find the currency I am looking for the current implementation.
Just downloaded it, very nice app, seems to have LOADS of functionality.
Thank you very much
Glad you guys like it. Yes still lots of work to do with it
Just downloaded this. looks awesome, will be testing it today
