Since you already have esfileexplorer app, you can access Google drive, and Dropbox (along with a bunch of other cloud services) from there. In esfile explorer, pull up the menu, tap network, tap cloud, tap new on the bottom left. You will then see a bunch of cloud services available. Just thought if pass that along in case you didn't know.

Thanks Penny. I did try that first and it worked okay only thing was the sheet I need to access (it's not mine it's been shared with me) using multiple tabs and ES only gave me the first tab. Office Pro gives me access to all tabs.

One thing I have done with ES though is add my kindle to my wifi network, that's really neat and useful. ES File Explorer is an indispensable app.

I would miss having a rear-facing camera, useful for capturing handwritten notes etc. Not to mention FireFly.

What's the name of the Dropbox App you are referring to? My Fire HD 7 is en route. I'd like to try out the Dropbox App, to at least *see* if it works, before I go the sideloading route. Thx!

Shouldn't it be called "Dropbox"?

That's what I assumed. I can't find one with that name. However, when my Fire GETS here, I'll look again, *from* the Fire. Maybe I'll be able to find it from there, rather than (not finding it) from my Mac.
