What do you use it for?

[insx]

Hi Folks

When I bought my scroll, I knew I didn't really need it, I just wanted it. I will most likely use it a couple of times a year on holiday for keeping up with email, etc. I'll take some videos with me too and I might use skype. The tweaking has been more fun that the actual using so far.

So, what do you actually use yours for? How useful is it?

Cheers

SWMBO uses it for games....

I use it to look at the forum, browsing, emails and general messing around

usually for videos.

i have a 16GB SD card, and a load of my film collection, and its awesome. the keyboard/wallet easily doubles as a stand.

i could also see myself using it as an e-reader if i had to, with Kobo.

E-reader, got a few books in PDF format. Browser, especially in the kitchen where I can rest it on the cookbook stand. Videos when the TV is already in use and I need a Clint Eastwood fix. The inbuilt video player isn't too bad. Have used the MS Office compatible app (sorry, can't remember the name) to write a few notes and have started to look at Jorte for organising stuff.

Think it's a case of gradually working using it into your daily routine. The idea is that it will become a travelling companion whenever I go to places where carrying a laptop isn't practical. Trip to Scotland coming up which will test that idea out.

Have upgraded the firmware (big improvement on the touchscreen) but haven't gone any further with tweaks. My brain can only handle so much technical stuff at a time!

E-reader and generally fixing what have f----- up while messing with it.

Mitre what app you using for the moto gp ?

[Mitre]

motogp timing app you get a 2d map of the track and the bikes onboard GPS positions the riders around the track you can tag riders to see whats happening off camera or just follow your favorite so cool

Bought it for tweaking by me, and using as an e-reader by my girlfriend. Means I get my Ipod Touch back all to myself...mostly
