Greetings. I recently picked up a GTab Pro 8.4 from Best Buy (couldn't resist the clearance price of $250). So far I'm very impressed with this device. I'm looking to really personalize this thing (I have an iPad 4 that is currently my primary tablet but looking to replace it with this GTab).

What are some widgets that you recommend for this (actually, any) tablet? Do you have any screenshots of your homescreens that might provide myself (and others) with some ideas?

thanks! I look forward to your suggestions.

Thanks Gekko! I've used Nova Launcher on my Kindle Fire HD and Nook HD and find it to be a terrific launcher. Wouldn't I lose the multi-window ability on the GTab if I use Nova?

Do you have any recommendations for RSS or News widgets?

SeriesGuide is a fantastic app with a handy widget for tracking your favourite TV shows and listing upcoming new episodes with dates and times.

Ok. Looks like not ALL apps can be used with multi-window... bummer. It also looks like the Magazine UX is pretty much dead. No additional MagUX widgets. I happen to like Microsoft's live tiles UI and thought that I could get the MagUX to act similarly.Those two deficiencies makes TouchWiz less important to me. I may go back to my old standby launcher, Nova.

I'll give some of these suggestions a try as I think they'll work better with Nova than TouchWiz.
