You may want to check out Taptu for Honeycomb

Check out Feedly too.

I would highly recommend pulse. I use that app more than anything else and on the tablet the split screen is really nice.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App
Try the following:
Feedly
Newsr
News360 (still in Beta but quickly getting better)
Pulse
My favorites are Feedly and Newsr currently. Several more are in beta stages.

thanks for these suggestions. i tried news 360. its user interface is nice .... and reminds me of flipboard somehow. before any updates from above apps mentioned , ifeel news 360 acts more reasonable for 10.1.

I love pulse. A preinstalled app that doesn't suck is great.
Pulse is okay, I hope flipboard comes to android.
It would be nice but I recently took a survey with News360 and they're currently working on Twitter/Facebook integration. It could possibly help me forget about Flipboard.
Man...if only I could code, I would have started working on an app just like Flipboard called Scrapbook. LoL. I wouldn't be surprised to see Flipboard appear on Android sometime after Christmas. I still wonder if Apple doesn't pay some of these developers not to work on both.
It seems silly as anybody who can program, can just take your idea, change it a bit and put in on another marketplace.
with that being said , flipboard to me ,also is far more better in providing iformation than any apps i tried on android os.
just by searching word 'cancer' , in these apps vs flipboard , one can clearly see the difference ....
hope flipboard coming to android soon ...

Another thing is that they need to make the content more customizable and give more consideration to the individual preference.

That is true.
Apart from the tremendous claim for their attractive layout, this is a real problem.
There is not enough personal customization of content, and most often, the status updates chronologically.
Ive never had the chance to play with it but having seen reviews, I would really like to use planetary on android.
I would pay 4.99 on the market for that
What do you mean there is no Flipboard-like app? Theres Google Currents which is superior
I was currently searching for planetary. Only thing i found , was this thread.
Can someone port it for android? Or am i asking something incredible?
I have flipboard installed on my tab. In the play store says isn't compatible but you can instal it if you download the apk from other source. Once installed the app says in the first time open that is not made for this screen size but works perfectly!

not really a tablet version, but it works. If it were a tablet version, the left pane would only expand to about a quarter of the page. I bet it works with honeycomb and ics though
Actually it doesn't even works with the honeycomb or ics tablets...Check out some pics here:

IPad and ios version is the same so I don't expect a fully compatible tablet version. A 3rd party fb app is "tablet" ready but lacks the features the current fb app has. Reckon its up to the user if they want aesthetic over features or vice versa.
Webos has tablet version right? But I like the current android version. I used it on mobile.website.

Friendcaster has all of the features of the regular FB app, at least all of the ones I use. It works great on the TP.

I've tried It and I'll pass it doesn't have the same features as original app. And I don't like ads.

I really like the touchpad version, especially the magazine style news feed. The sliding of the panes, and links is just like the rest of webOS, intuitive and smooth. It pulls your pictures into the picture application, WP7 style, another nice treat.
The phone app version on Android seems such a waste of the screen. When on the android side I use dolphin browser to get the full site.
The superior Facebook app is just another reason I use Android less and less on my touchpad.

Tagging friends using @, integratedvchat and messaging inbox, also some posts don't show up if users set certain privacy settings.
Also some features have to be opened on the site since friendcaster doesn't support them natively

What apps are you going to get? I don't mean just general apps, i mean ones made for use with the S Pen.
Post your ideas below!
Here are some apps and soon to come apps for the S-Pen. Might be worth a bookmark.
http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxynote/note/applications.html?type=find
Samsung also has an app on the Gnote which will take you to a web site where you can download some Samsung apps for the S pen. I recall one being a crayon game app for kids etc. Also EZ pdf which allows you to use the S pen to fill out or sign pdf forms etc.
Edit: I did not click the link above from droidal. Those look to be the Samsung apps.

I really hope that they release iAnnotate soon.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using Tapatalk
iAnnotate would be good. I'd love to see a version of Polaris office like we had on the HTC Flyer that integrates with the Stylus as well so we could mark-up Word and PPTs as well as PDFs.
Also, after reading the CNET review, it looks like we may not be getting S-Planner initially so I'm hoping they have it in the Samsung app store for an optional download (or someone can make the APK work from the international version work with the AT&T version).
From all the reviews I have seen it seems Samsung/AT&T didnt include Video Maker, like they did on the international version.
I want to see if I can track that down right away. He is a video of what you can do with it.

Was a News Rob fan, but now I use the official Google Reader app. Works well.

Just tried them both out and Pulse really is awesome. I think it will replace Flud nicely for me.
I've used Newsrob, Pulse, the official Google Reader, I've tried a lot of them. So far my favorite has been gReader Pro. There is a free version to try, give it a shot.
I use one called "gReader (Google Reader | RSS)" -- this is not the official Google app!
It's fast, it's simple, it just works, and it's free.
Used Pulse and Greader both for log periods, but keep coming back to Taptu.

Initial install and setup yes the feeds take a few minutes to load, after that it is instant for me. And the UI is simple...nothing flashy just clean and minimal....perfect IMHO.
There is a new Commercial I saw just today. I was wondering if anyone can name the app where two (people with the samsung galaxy) notes are drawing on the same picture at the same time. The picture with the goldfish. Also which app was the one used to annotate a document? Either way, WONDERFUL Commercial!
I can't post video links yet, but it's called 'Samsung Galaxy Note - Meet the Note'
Yes saw it about time they show the feature set of the note.

Hi,
I recently made a switch to CM9. I was using an App made for webOS called Zite. I like Zite and want to continue using it. I found app in Google Play. I am trying to install Zite from Google Play. But it shows message that "your device is not compatible with this version". I tried modifying build.prop but there was no impact. Is there a way to install Zite on CM9?
Thanks
Do you have any other android devices? You could try side loading from one of them...
Never mind, I uploaded it here for you since it's a free app. Just use your file explorer to install it!

On android zite does not support tablets. Have you tried to side load it? Try to Google zite.apk the only problem with this method is it won't do updates but you might get it to work until they come out with a tablet version.
Sent from my LG-P930 using xda app-developers app
If you can't get Zite working well for you you might want to look at the app called Google Currents. Even when I was using webos I wasn't a big fan of Zite . Currents works pretty well.
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using xda app-developers app
I have never used Zite but as others mentioned, Flipboard (side load required), Google Currents (loads fine from market) & Pulse (market loadable) are a few that work perfectly good on TP.
Thanks for responses. I have Flip board, Google currents, APPY Geek and Pulse in addition to Zite. I use all these apps. I almost exclusively use those . I recollect installing all these from play store with cm9 June version. No side loading. But now (with aug version) it won't let me. Even Flip board says app is not compatible, however I have it already installed. My major issue with Flip board is, it only works in portrait mode.
Zite on webOS is beautiful. I am a business user and am one of those who like webOS's simple user interface.
