guys, what's a good free app for reading forums?

or is Tapatalk the best for Android OS?

Thanks!

and for the noob question of the day, being new to droid I have never bought an App before, does it just get charged to my VZW account?

Tapatalk is good yes and has a lot of forums on board.

You can give google a CC or debit card to be placed on file (or not) and it will charge you accordingly
 
I got the girlfriend a Northface jacket, some notebooks & pencils from this awesome company in UK that she's wanted and a signed post from her favorite band with handwritten lyrics on it.

Some other random small things too.

Double post, but text is extremely readable from a picture taken with the GNEX. Just took this of my snapple fact from lunch.

Yay for info staying safe.
If its something she wants but you know she probably wouldn't spend the money on herself then yes, its romantic in a way. Shows you know her and love her. :)

That is all she has asked for over the last month :)

She's an avid reader and loves tech. Was getting here the GN and Fire, but few priorites are changing.

I took a photo yesterday of some text on paper and was blown away at how well it did, I'll upload shortly

Edit: guess I deleted the one from yesterday, but just snapped a quick one of the small print on a McDonalds coupon I had handy

I've found the camera to be acceptable if I don't zoom and the lighting is not too terrible. Have you played with your camera settings at all?

What are you getting her?? All the guys in here seem to have a heck of a romantic streak from what I've read.

So first of all...

In May, it is our Anniversary, Mother's Day, and her Birthday, in that order, within a ten day period. So I got her a Spa Treatment/Massage, diamond earrings, and a Nook Color. I had been planning on getting her the Samsung Stratosphere as her big gift but her LG Ally pooped out two months too early! I know she wants cozy boots from Target she pointed out but that is hardly thoughtful. I am actually at a loss and Christmas is four days away! Help me BB...you're my only hope. Help me BB, you're my only hope...

Turned my phone on airplane mode due to the abysmal reception in the building I'm in at around 60% on the battery. Since that time I read a book for about 3 hours with total screen on time being 3 hours and 40 some odd minutes. Just now at 25% battery remaining.

The funeral was for the NYPD Officer killed in Brooklyn,Funeral was monday morning.Now Im just playing catch up with the holidays fast approaching.I am loving this phone, having a good time figuring it out. People at work are amazed that it has no buttons and how nice Netflix looks on it. Well worth the wait.

Everywhere I go people are taken aback by the sheer beauty of this device. If I don't put it down soon I may be late to work.

that's not to shabby.. if you tried placing it in night mode with a deep black back and white/beige lettering and you could probably save more power too

Just peeking in to say hello,Its been a hell of a week.Funeral for a brother officer always takes the wind out of my sails.

Yeah, that's tough stuff right there. A lot of our friends are either cops or firemen, and I think the only thing as sad as a funeral for either of them is the funeral of a child.

Not yet. I really haven't taken many pictures either, just a couple to test out various things

Hmmm....maybe I'll go to the VZW store tonight and test my camera against their floor model. I really was hoping for slightly better quality.

Ok - what about a night out for her....either a movie or a show and dinner. All centered on her favorites.
