Default I bought one!

Hi guys, I finally bought the GSN 10.1!
I've been eyeing it since the launch, but finally made the move.
I hope that I get the most out of it and will be posting my thoughts about it as soon as i use it enough.
I am a college student looking to replace all paper and pen (more like most), so if you guys have any recommedations on apps I will gtreatly appreciate all inputs.
I have already found the Kno to be somewhat glitchy, so got myself ezPDF and problem solved (though i liked thr kno interface).
Anyone else have problems with Kno?

Anyways i hope tohave a great experience here!

If you prefer to write your updates and messages onscreen rather than type, I recommend 7 notes for mazec app.(I think it's around a dollar or so) but well worth it!

Also just got this tablet, there's so much you can do! Love it, can't wait for jellybean

I haven't found any note apps that allow for your hand to touch the screen without recognizing it as a pen like the built-in apps do. I like that feature but find the built-in app too complicated.

Anyone know of another that can differentiate this way?

Have you tried Papyrus Beta?

It's specifically designed for the original Galaxy Note and I would believe it would work for the 10.1. I like how you can use your finger to erase and the S-Pen to write. It's going to be one of the first things I install on the Note 10.1 (besides Nova Launcher). I just ordered mine and waiting it to be shipped to a store near me.

Thanks for the heads up for Nova Launcher, I downloaded the free App. wish I had known about the .25 cent sale for the Nova Launcher Prime as it's now $4 dollars. It's not a big price but oh well. Is the Prime that much better?

I honestly can't recall what the difference was. I bought it way before the 25 cent sale and before the ICS upgrade on my Note. My brother got the TF101 and wanted a different launcher. I remember playing with it for 10-15 minutes and decided it was worth the purchase to support the developer.

I like it a lot and have no regrets about my purchase; even when I saw the price at 25 cents. If you are interested, there's also Apex Launcher. Some have noted the free version of Apex has more features than the lite version of Nova.

So far, I've found ezPDF and papyrus to be the most useful apps for note taking and pdf annotating. I'm having fun with my GSN, but seems like I can do so much more.
I'll keep exploring!
