so basically I bought a kobo arc yesterday and I just ordered a USB otg cable on amazon but I heard that it doesn't work on a kobo arc. Can someone tell me if there's something you can do to make it work? Thanks in advance

There is no other function. It's a hardware limitation. We're out of luck. Also no MHL either

I'm in the market for a tablet but am uncertain of which one of the 2 I should get. What do you guys think?

The Galaxy tab is the better of the two but i would really recommend you spending the (maybe) extra $100 and getting a Transformer Prime, it's the thinnest and most powerful tablet of the market
xoom, but wait til xoom 2 comes out, it will be amazing!
Looking at the transformer right now...
When is the xoom 2 coming out?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
The Xoom 2 is already out. It's called the Motorola Droid Xyboard in the US, and the Xoom 2 everywhere else in the world. The Xoom 2 is NOT a Google Experience device like the original Xoom was. It's full of Motorola and Verizon bloatware and I believe it has a few UI customizations too. It's not stock Honeycomb.
If having a Google Experience device matters to you (meaning having all the latest updates and using Android in vanilla form as Google made it), then get a Xoom. If that doesn't matter as much to you, then get a Galaxy Tab or an Asus Transformer Prime.
I personally have a 4G LTE Xoom and love it.
That's actually very good information... thanks for that...

Depends, When your being attacked by a man for what ever reason, which tablet would you think will be able to knock him out and still be usable?
Durability is my #1 requirement when buying a tablet.
The Xoom is only a Google experience device if it is sold in the states otherwise it's a tablet that's a few versions behind.
The transformer, while not a google experience device it is really quick on updates like it gets them within a month-ish of being released. That may not seem fast but it has consistently been the most quickly updated tablet and the only skin on it is changing the look of the buttons on the device.
Vote for Galaxy tab

x2 in my opinion
Anyone test out both? Isn't the Xoom a bit on the heavy side? And I've heard that the gt feels cheap...

I asked myself the same question before getting the Xoom

+1 for the Galaxy Tab. I bought this for my wife for Christmas and she loves it. The only downfall that I can point out is: 1) No USB port, 2) No external memory.
But hey, if you have dropbox, or a wifi connection, USB isn't needed. And just make sure you get enough internal memory to last you.
+1 for the Galaxy Tab.
Compare the specs and hardware of the Xoom against the Acer Iconia , more bang for the buck with Acer, and you can find them for $250 ish
I like how the movies play more in a wide screen format compared to the Ipad and Xoom...and XDA does have pretty robust forum.
The Iconia does beat the rest on port selection; its left edge is home to a 3.5mm headphone jack and a mini-HDMI port, while the right side holds full-sized USB and Micro USB ports. Under the port cover on the top you'll find a MicroSD card slot, taped-over SIM card slot, a rather stiff volume rocker, and a rotation lock switch. The USB 2.0 port is certainty a bragging right for the Iconia,

Also, faced with the same question, my money went (today) on a Xoom. My wife's playing on it right now, while I post from my ancient dell latitude running Ubuntu. It's not even the latest ver of Ubuntu. What's up with that?

Xoom. I tried it in a local store yesterday and I loved the pure Google experience. I also tried the Xoom 2 but it had Motoblur including all the icons which made it look bad in my opinion. I'm the type of person who likes the pure Google experience. The Galaxy Tab is too similar to an iPad in my opinion and I don't like Touchwiz either.

The Galaxy tab is the best tablet
I'm also looking for a tablet with USB 2.0 so I can plug my flash drive and copy data from it directly on my tablet.. And also I would like to plug my tablet to projectors so I can present my slide..
So far I've came with Acer Iconia A500.. It has a USB port to copy data and HDMI port to connect to projectors (maybe with HDMI VGA converter?)..
Is there any other tablet better than that with functionality I mentioned above?
Thanks
For badassery, get the ASUS Transformer or if you need a cheaper tablet that still handles well but with very little dev support, the Toshiba Thrive is great too.

They don't have usb. But I agree, I have a 10.1 and I love it

Don't know if you have bought a tablet yet but I have a Toshiba thrive and I think it's awesome...Once rooted and custom rom its decently fast and smooth. The full ports are very very useful for me but if you aren't going to use the ports then really there is no point to the thrive and it's obesity.

Toshiba Thrive has a slot,also they're new flagship tablet if you're budget can make it.

It is called MHL. It connects to the USB port, and outputs an HDMI port where you can connect any cable.

THANks!!!:good: now i know what to buy
Anyone know what res the xperia z mirrors to a display over MHL? I know the 720p gen phones put out that res, which is slightly annoying on fullhd native TVs, just wondering if these new full HD devices put out the same res?

I've just started looking at miracast, its new to me, looking for some straight answers
Is it as straight forward as buying one of the devices available, jack it into TV, connect to WiFi then steam from mobile/tablet to the big screen?
What exactly are the requirements of said mobile device (android)?
Will it work with an original nexus 7 and/or HTC One Mini
