Tablet apps

I got the tab 2 days ago, thank you staples coupon.

I have had the incredible since its release, I still love it.

I love the tab so far, I am a little disappointed on the small selection of apps that are optimized for tablets.

I don't see a fb, or a netflix app in the market.
Fb has always been terrible about updating their app, but it is a bit annoying.
You have to sideload netflix?
I also can't get skype to video chat. I heard about tango, but skype would be better since everyone uses it.

Any hints on apps that video chat better than tango?
 
There will soon be many more apps available. As for the FB issue. My wife at first was disappointed that it didn't have one available, but then she realized that it is really easy to use the regular FB website and get everything that they offer instead of an app that is going to have limitations.
 
I'm a little miffed about the FB app still- I sideloaded it, mostly because I wanted the widget. I do have the FB app on my Xoom, so it must be recent that they removed it.

Now... there are a ton of apps out there that aren't tablet "optimized" but work perfectly on a tab, all the same, and scale perfectly. So don't be afraid to try an app that isn't listed in the tab section. I'd say 60% of the apps I use weren't specifically listed for tablets.

AFA Netflix, I've heard lots of people have been able to sideload it. I sideloaded it on my 3G Xoom, no problems, but I can't get it to work on my tab. :( Not sure if there's some difference because I have the 4G one?
