Someone else likes BeyondPod!

I just discovered BeyondPod Podcast Manager. Was using DoggCatcher prior. If you want something that takes advantage of Honeycomb (specific Honeycomb version available) with an awesome UI and is highly customizable (even pulls in subscriptions from Google Reader), this is it! I use it for audio/video podcasts, and RSS feeds. There's a 7 day trial available.

Note: some may be turned off by so many options.

Ah.. Coin dozer.

Almost three full days of my life well spent on the addiction of coin pushing.

Made it to level 200+ and some number around the thousands in coins (4000+ I believe), can't remember right now where it was and can't be bothered to pull my phone out.

Your post.. makes me want to play some more... But I must resist.. the.. coi---

Oh sorry, I trailed off right there, didn't I? Got sidetracked by the pushing of coins..

DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for any addictions to Coin Dozer after reading my post. I am also not responsible for the lack of forgetting simple tasks due to needing "just a few more coins" such as, and not limited to forgetting to feed the dog, ignoring your wife and family, withdrawn in social events, eye strain from staring at an LCD screen too long, and finally the ruining of your social career.

Seriously, if you know what's good for you, you won't get this game.

Even though it's fun..
You must resist.

EDIT: For anyone interested.. I checked Coin Dozer on my phone, i was at level 160 when I stopped playing, around 4700 Coins..

Close enough, for some reason I thought I was around the 200+ Levels.

Now I Coin Drop! ...

In Coin Dozer, I'm around level 130 and about 4000 coins and only getting more coins, as every screen full of coins that are banked, I net more than I used. I think I could ramp it up even further, however, all my prizes are at 6+ stars, so there is no more attainable goals, other than a higher score. It was fun while it lasted, but I do return once and a while to get to a new level... Oh so addictive!

Wirelessly syncs with iTunes. I discovered this a few days ago. Was using DoubleTwist via USB before, but that didn't work anymore with Honeycomb (I'm on a Mac). I resorted to dragging and dropping music folders. Sad.

Now I can sync effortlessly.

Quote:

Synchronize your iTunes music files over your Wi-Fi connection

Try TuneSync Lite before purchasing

Automatically synchronize your iTunes music files (mp3, aac), artwork, and playlists to your SD card over your Wi-Fi.

**Requires a SD Card, iTunes, and free server from
http://www.tunesync.com

*Note: The free server states that it only works with Mac OS 10.6 and 10.7. I was like, oh boy, here we go again with another application that doesn't work on 10.5. Seems to be a trend as of late. I installed it anyway and it works.

We do seem to be a minority and I'm not entirely sure why. Sure, there might be tons of options (like you emphasized) but using them isn't obligatory by any stretch. Just really enjoy the google reader integration and batched downloads (which I've scheduled to download at night when connected to the charger and wifi network). Fresh podcasts available locally every morning, lovely stuff.

Also forgot to mention Spotify, which is probably the app that gets the most use but since it's always in the background I tend to forget about it.

I ommited an app that I use daily, and the first app I install on all Android devices. I use it so much I forget about it....make sense?

Anyhow the app is called
* Google Gesture Launcher.

By far one of the most useful apps. You just write on the screen what you are looking for be it contacts, apps, bookmarks, music,etc... and they pop up, quickest way to bring up anything save a shortcut on the desktop.

Also anybody use the goodreads app?
