Getting bored with the Prime

I do a lot of video editing. I make movies for my family using my dads and uncles old Super 8 and 8mm films I've converted to digital format. I render my videos in .mp4 format and using my HDMI port show them on my bigscreen. You can show pictures etc on your big screen.
What's neat is I use my cell phone to control my video app (MX player) using Tablet Remote. You should see some iFanboys faces when I whip out my cell phone and start showing videos through the HDMI on my bigscreen and not have to touch the Prime. Priceless. I love this device.

playing gta with a controller (ps3/360 take your pick) along with shodow gun is pretty hard to beat. when hooked up through hdmi to a tv.

+ max payne comes out soon so that should be pretty awsome.

Although with the using the phone as a remote feature, don't you have to have the tablet and the phone both rooted for that?

Nope, Not rooted yet. Just install Tablet Remote on both the Prime and your phone. Setup the connection (it uses BT or WiFi) and you're set.
