    FREE Android Apps on Amazon - Swype Keyboard, Worms 2, Runtastic Pro & more

    Well, oddly enough, I get the same message of incompatibility for Worms when visiting the webpage, but since I simply clicked on the app in the Amazon App store instead on my phone and tablet, I can only presume it is a website bug. Needless to say, Worms, Runtastic Pro, and Monopoly all work fine.

    FREE Android Apps on Amazon - Swype Keyboard, Worms 2, Runtastic Pro & more

    You just need to install the AppStore (as linked in OP), and get it through it. The apps are still plain ol' Android apps. They have daily free apps, so definitely worth having, if for no other reason.

    FREE Android Apps on Amazon - Swype Keyboard, Worms 2, Runtastic Pro & more

    I have no idea what you are talking about. I installed the apps on both my LG G2 smartphone and on my rooted Nook HD+ without difficulties.

    LG G Pad 8.3-inch Tablet - Quad-Core 2GB RAM 16GB (1920x1200): $249 + FS

    It depends on what you want. My first tablet was 7 inches. For reading it was fine, but for anything else, I found myself constantly wishing it was just a bit bigger. For web browsing, PDFs, movies, or even comic viewing, the difference in size will be notable. Note the Fire does not accept...

    LG G Pad 8.3-inch Tablet - Quad-Core 2GB RAM 16GB (1920x1200): $249 + FS

    It can be used for navigation anyhow, thanks to the GPS, and you can always tether to your phone if absolutely necessary, but as a WiFi model, it is what it is. Even the Samsung Galaxy Pro 8.4 is $399 for the WiFi only model. I have a Nook HD+ 8.9-inch (1920x1280), which was my second tablet...

    Possibly, but nothing is mentioned. I operate with a WYSIWYG philosophy, and by that standard I already find this to be a hot deal.

    *Hot* - Humble Bundle 2 for Android

    This particular crop of Android games is really a superb deal if you go for the full unlocked purchase (minimum $4.54 as of this post): Ravensword: Shadowlands - A Skyrim wannabe, but very well done, and released only a few months ago. Retails or $6.99 Carmageddon - This is a huge classic from...

    Humble Bundle Paradox - Strategy games galore!

    Actually he was right, but not because of the charity thing (though it is a worthwhile consideration). Crusader Kings II is only about a year old and is a truly brilliant game. I'll be honest, it was my first Paradox game, having read it was insanely fun and accessible. It does have a...

    [Warm] - Unlocked 16GB HTC One X $349 @ Groupon

    I just bought the unlocked LG Optimus 4x HD for $285 at Amazon (a fairly typical price) and it is amazing bang for the buck. In a nutshell: - quad-core Tegra 3 (4 x 1.5GHz - goes to 1.7GHz) - 4.7 inch screen, 1280x720 - 16GB internal Ram (expandable) - replaceable battery (cost $10)...

    DOTA 2 $0.99

    Not terribly. You choose between ~80 heroes and need to break down the enemy fortress with a team of five. The vast number is designed to force you to not only master your hero, but also all the others you fight against, in order to achieve skillful play. There is only one map. It does have one...

    60 waffles for 6.99 in store only costco

    It is called knowledge vs. ignorance, and you are obviously 100% correct. It has to do with the endless lack of understanding of even the most basic aspects of nutrition and weight. Still, it could be worse: the book could be recommending a fatless or extremely low-fat diet. That would have...

    60 waffles for 6.99 in store only costco

    It is worse than that. Notice how for millions of years the evolving human race has been dying, and they have been drinking water and breathing air. Coincidence? Obviously not.

    Nexus 7 tablet Refurb w/FS $140

    I agree it should. Just bear in mind that some things like games or vids can take up a lot of space. I bought Bard's Tale in the app store, for $3, and it is a perfect adaptation of the PC game, and extremely well-done, but it requires 1.8 to 3.5GB of files, depending on whether you use high res...

    XCOM: Enemy Unknown PC Download $16.50 @ Amazon (Steamworks game)

    Agreed and the game is a really well-done. They did a fantastic job of cleaning up the single most boring aspect of the original: the movement points for EVERYTHING, including turning around. The game used to slow down to a turtle's pace and take 15 mins to do a single turn. Got old very quickly.

    Warm? Dell Inspiron 15R Special Edition $699 @ Microcenter

    It won't play recent games at full res (1080p) fluidly at highest quality, with few exceptions. Here is a practical reply with no charts. I prefer a fluid playing experience over an extra notch of whatever. Choppiness kills a game more than anything for me. Skyrim - I play it with some 30+...
