Had to reset my home screen for some stupid reason so I thought it's a nice chance to change things up.

Still have to change the icons to use one of the icon packs I have.

Try MX Player. It is not a beta... and I think it works better right now than the VLC. More optimized at least.

so its been out for a little bit now, would you guys recommend a nexus 7 tablet?

thinking about ordering one right now as a present

or should i try and get an ipad mini to give?

hell yes! much more capable than an ipad. but in the end, it depends on who you're giving it too.

StylinRed

12-16-2012 07:55 PM

that's what i was thinking too

they currently use an android phone as well

but im also thinking "wont it just be the same as their phone? just a couple inches bigger screen"
thought myabe an ipad would be an interesting change of pace

I am currently running the PS3 Media Server on my desktop, and I can stream media to my PS3 (obviously) and iPad with AirPlayer app, but I can't find an AirPlayer equivalent for android? Anyone know of one?

Guys
Need some help here
Should I get a 16gb model for $160 or a 32gb one for $230?
The 16gb one is open box whereas the 32 is brand new

32GB. Good for movies. Me and le gf watched a couple movies on the Nexus I downloaded in blueray rips. Crisp clean screen. Good size for 2 cuddled together :).

Also had a look at the books in the play store, good backlight and text quality.
