Box.net so you can use your free box.net account, 50 gigs!

Facebook, my wife says its very nice. I dont use it.

If you like puzzle games, Quell. Another I'd recommend is Robotek. Need for Speed is $10 but WELL worth it. The graphics are quite good!

Interfacelift HD, great for applying new wallpapers.

If you like learning, Khan Academy.

Epicurious for cooking, recipes etc.

Kindle app.

The Amazon link.

I hope Box.net honors the offer.

If they arent honoring the offer, my friend just started working for them, I'm sure he could hook me up with something.

You know looking at the browser, kinda feeling iffy about the cards for each new window.

I think I'd prefer tabbed browsing instead.

I think there is a tabbed browser someone made, might be in the App catalog. I haven't bothered.

Signed up for box.net right away...they are still honoring it (at least of 2pm CST this afternoon). Signed my father up as well.

I'll check the others out. I have NFS, epicurious, and kindle on my other devices as well.

Does Box.net let you access and drop files from a PC too?

I got an email from HP saying that my order has been received. I guess I'm good.

The slickdeals link says that not all orders on HP.com are going through.

yep. PC or Mac. you have to sign up on the touchpad first and then log into the website with the account you created. if you just sign up on the website, you only get 5gb.

Cool, so once you sign up with the deal, you dont even need the touchpad for the 50 GB to use on the PC...?

pretty much. I signed myself up on the touchpad first, logged out and then signed my father up. I gave him the touchpad and I can add stuff to my box through a web browser.

Gut it and put a Pre comm board meant for Sprint. Sprint never sold the Pre 2 and it's a direct swap.
