Now, there are lots of Apps that will work, but I haven't found one that's worth wasting my time on. Call me old fashioned, but I believe it's QUALITY not QUANTITY that counts.

So, it's off to e-Pay with this tinker-toy.

What you do with your unit is entirely up to you but I would like to get on record exactly what your problems have been for the enlightenment of others.

First, the apps you are having trouble with. Are they apps designed to work on TABLETS or are they phone apps that require phone functions to work?

Second, have you tried to download the *.apk to your computer and install from there? That is the only way I install apps on my EE.

Third, do the apps actually run on our version of Android? If not then you have about the same odds as a snowball surviving in hell of it working.

Fourth, do you have the market enabled version of Ermine installed and have you checked it works? You may be able to use the Amazon app store if you have already set up an account there as I understand it - I gave up on that when I found it was US only.

If you could give some answers to the above questions we will all learn more about our devices.
