Nexus 7 General Discussion / getting my Nexus 7 tomorrow, what accessories/apps to get?
« on: July 29, 2012, 07:45:47 PM »
Hello all! New here. Decided to post here instead of the introductions forum since I wanted to ask some questions.
I was on facebook the other day and noticed a picture of the Nexus 7 posted by G4. I was instantly intrigued, because I had been wanting an Android tablet for a while, especially since I'm using a Nexus S 4G phone. I bought a Blackberry Playbook in January and have been using it daily with no problems, but the lack of apps really made me regret my purchase, and wishing I had gotten an Android tablet instead. But luckily, I was able to sell it so now I'm going to get the Nexus 7! Brandsmart USA is having a free tax sale until 8/11, so if you have a Brandsmart near you and haven't gotten your tablet yet, I highly suggest you call and see if they have them in stock! I've been scouring the internet to find a 16GB model since Google is sold out of them, and I ended up placing my order at Radioshack online, but was very disappointed to see that I was charged a sales tax! So when I found out Brandsmart had a bunch of 16GB models just ready to be snagged up, I immediately cancelled my Radioshack order.
I also picked up this beautiful case + accessories on ebay (http://www.ebay.com/itm/170881449856?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649), for only about $12 with free shipping, you get the case (lots of different colors), usb cable, stylus, screen protector, cable tie, earphone cord, and micro fiber cloth!
I'm also ordering an OTG cable plus a longer USB/Mini B cable since I recently discovered I can use my Playstation 3 controller to play games on the Nexus 7. I think that is so cool! You can buy these for very cheap on Amazon!
Am I missing anything?
Also, any recommendations on cool apps and fun games?
