    Has anyone tried Huddle with their Xoom?

    I don't have any friends, or I'd try it myself. :P I can understand the temptation to put this in the "Tablets" section, but I put XOOM in the title because I want to hear from XOOM owners, not those who just have android tablets... unless they also got it working on the Xoom, thanks.

    Droid 2 rebooting craziness

    I reactivated my R2D2 D2 a last Wednesday. Tuesday, the phone rebooted on my out of the blue and I remembered why I was so happy to go back to the EnV Touch. I prayed that it was just a fluke but today it did it to me again while I was on the phone. It used to do that to me all of the time. It...

    For angry 3g owners who bought their XOOM on contract...

    VZW is raising its regulatory fee that they are charging you for service by 3 cents. I linked an article from the Consumerist up in the Verizon section but it could be your tactical nuke (not recommended if you want to keep your phone lines) in this situation. If you only got a contract to get...

    A possible chance to get out of your VZW contract fee free comes July 1st.

    It might by kind of petty to cancel your contract over 3 cents, but they are charging it because they want to, not because the government is making them. This is the article I found at the Consumerist. I don't have any plans to take advantage of this unless the XOOM does not have LTE by the...

    OK, how can I get this USB stick working now?

    Google Music

    Sounds like the 3g Xooms are getting it first. I look forward to checking it out. I guess after the announcement at I/O it will become available.

    [Request] A user name to PM all mods to

    I like the idea of sending things to Phases (the restraining order prevents me from doing so regularly) and Slug's inbox is probably getting full (mods with short names get the short straw when I need help.) Could there be a PM address that goes to all of them if there isn't one already? (I...

    Google Earth on the Xoom (honeycomb)

    Google Earth has been updated for tablets and now has a 3d building layer. It's pretty cool but I am not the best pilot. My data cap is probably going to be exceeded. I wish I had control the cache on this sucker.

    Market Update?

    I ran into this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1057250 My market is the same. Has anyone else seen a new one?

    AutoCAD (the party is over)

    For those of you who are into pain: Autocad WS is a featured tablet app in the Android Market. It looks like the days of tablet fun are over and it's time to get to work. :(

    [Off Topic] I can't believe I said that...

    I was on the bus yesterday and a guy sitting next to me asked if my Xoom was new (yes, I've come to terms that guys are way more interested in my gear than me, but I'm old so it's OK.) I looked right at him and said "No." I kind of went back to what I was doing and he was asking more questions...

    Root Video Skype?

    So who's working on getting the HTC Thunderbolt's Skype capability in the Xoom? Hopefully someone can get that app and beat it into submission until it works on the Xoom. It would suck if whatever they did to get it working just wasn't compatible with Android 3.0.

    Help Tasker?

    Does anyone have Tasker on the Xoom? I want to set up a profile that makes it super bright/never lock while docked yet us the other settings at all other times. I am slow to purchase apps with the way that the Market has reduced the trial period. I want to know as much as I can before hitting...

    Ethics Question

    Please don't move this to the All Things Root section right away as I want the opinions of those who don't root their devices as well. There are some UI issues with the Xoom that Gizmodo reminded me of that are going to annoy the hell out of me now (thanks, Gizmodo.) I think that most of the...

    It's always after the fact :(

    Today, they're putting out the latest $1 bill with the new Treasurer's signature on them. We hosted an event where she would autograph them for us (kind of redundant but a nice gesture.) When she was signing them, people had really cute sayings for her to write (yes, someone did ask her to...

    Was afraid that I had become one of those old ladies who order too much QVC...

    A package from an origin that I did not recognize showed up on my doorstep. I had just ordered a bunch of stuff online and was worried that I had gotten carried away so I started opening the box. It looked like some big Iron Man model. I thought "Oh, crap. Now I have to figure out how to...

    Please help out my alums over at Carnegie Mellon

    They are doing a study about perceptions of security and privacy whilst using location based sharing in a social networking arena. They are using a client called Locaccino. They ask that you complete an entrance survey at http://locaccino.orc/ucpl. This seems like some sort of geotagging for...

    Question about factory reset issues (I am putting my tinfoil hat back on)

    Don't you think it is wierd that reports of loss of 3G service started rolling in over the last couple of days yet Verizon claimed that it was a device problem on all of the devices running 2.1 except the Devour? I can't help but feel distrustful of VZW since they reported the the Droid's...

    OK guys, what mischief would you cause?

    Scenario: You just got a text message from a phone number you did not recognize that said "I landed a few minutes ago and I am waiting at Baggage Claim." You also had not made any arrangements to pick anyone up from the airport. What would you do?

    Unity 3

    Does anyone have any info about whether the August release is on track? I think this is a very inexpensive tool that opens up a lot of possibilities for us.

    Taxes...

    Someone posted about abolishing income tax and just using a sales tax... I imagine, we'd still have property tax and things like that but do you think that could work? It seems like there could be a whole underbelly of people paying each other for "services" to avoid this... oh like we do...

    I am inviting y'all to the first meeting of the Tin Foil Hat Wearers

    Hi everyone, I am 3devious and I am a conspiracy theorist. 1. I believe the keyboard on the Droid is so abysmal because it is part of a secret plot to make people buy the Droid2. 2. I think that Adobe secretly funds the development of Gimp to make people hate the interface so much they run...

    Suck it, PCWORLD. When you just want it to work, there is no comparison. Too bad the wireless just can't compare to FiOS though.
