    Nook Tab 4 - B&N shop search not working. Does anyone else have this problem or a fix for it?

    Nook Tab 4 - B&N shop search not working I just got the Barnes & Noble Nook version of the Galaxy Tab 4. The Nook shop's search feature is not working; half the time it says there are no results for the search (when I know that something should show up). Anyone else have this problem or a fix?

    Shipping time for prepaid SIM?

    I ordered a SIM activation kit from T-Mobile's website (to use with their prepaid plans). I ordered it Monday night, and received confirmation that it shipped Tuesday. It says it should arrive in 2-4 business days (so this coming Monday would be the 4th day). However, the UPS website says that...

    Winning a Nexus 7 would be awesome, and it would give me even more reasons to love Android Central ;) (which I already read daily!)

    did I choose poorly, or am I uninformed???

    I haven't used a Kindle much, so I am not sure how it compares. However, there are tons of free books for the Nook. In the six months I've had my Nook, I've downloaded about 315 free books (plus dozens more borrowed from the library), and only paid for about 15 (and all of those were on sale for...

    Bit of market research

    1. Do you find it easy to discover new apps on the Android Market? Not unless I know what I'm looking for. If I try to browse I just see a bunch of apps I already know about, and it's rare to find something new that I am actually interested in. I only took the time to browse more in depth when...

    Graphics Quality Question?

    I think the issue of graphics quality is more about the game software than the tablet hardware, in this case. The Nook is primarily an e-reader, with games/videos etc. targeted toward the casual, non-techie. The B&N Market is lousy for games. Angry Birds, Scrabble, that's about all that's...

    Day 1 and Pissed

    You may want to look into a Kindle Fire. I think you can download the movies if you pay for them (but not the ones you get "free" with Amazon Prime, which is streaming only). I don't have a Fire to confirm this; I'm only going by what I've read on their site. On the Nook, you can drag-and-drop...

    USB Dongle

    If I understand you correctly... WPA/WPA2 just means that your wireless router is secured with a password. When you set up your router for the first time, you set up a name for the network and a password (sometimes called a key) or you left the ones that it chose automatically. Most likely...

    Contest Closed - Logitech Revue Giveaway - Free Logitech Revue!

    optimized websites for tv channels I think the most exciting thing about Google TV is the possibility for the various TV networks and content producers to "tweak" their websites for viewing on TV ... and the viewer to seamlessly switch between the broadcast and online/on-demand ways of...

    What phone will you be giving up for the Epic 4g?

    I wish... I wish I was able to switch from my Moto Droid. I love it except for the keyboard (which I constantly make mistakes trying to type on. It's easier to just use the touch screen one!), plus this just looks sleeker and is newer (thus better in the world of technology). However I'm stuck...
