FYI, the full source code for the G Pad has been released on the LG website. This should improve the chances that we will see some custom ROM's developed.

Only one person on here has a case. I ordered mine and wont get it until the 25th. For now im using the screen sticker that came on the device and get my illumishield screen protectors by saturday to replace it.
It should only be a short while before we see many cases on Amazon for our GPad 8.3 I prefer this type of case.
Amazon.com: MoKo Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 Case - Ultra Slim Lightweight Smart-shell Stand Case for Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 Inch SM-T3100 / SM-T3110 Android Tablet, BLACK (with Smart Auto Wake / Sleep Feature): Computers & Accessories
and also this type.
Amazon.com: AceAbove Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7 Slim Folio Case / Cover (Galaxy Tab 3 7 inch Tablet) with Built-in Stand (Three Year Warranty) (Black): Computers & Accessories
I have used both of those in the past and hope to see them soon for the GPad.

Hey,
I'm really looking at buying this tablet but I have a couple of questions for current owners...
Is the USB port Slimport compatable?
What's the wireless like? I'll be mainly using this tab for streaming movies from my NAS. I'm especially interested in the 5GHz N wireless performance?
Thanks

According to Slimport website, the Lg G Pad is listed as a supported device....

That's great, i'd love to know how strong the WIFi connection is, also what speed it connects. I currently have a 2012 Nexus and the WIFI isn't very good at all.
Wow, another favorable review. Very short by ZDNet and interestingly they compared the G Pad to it's proper competition and price points.

I appreciate the comments on the premium feel of this tablet. It actually feels more premium than my spousal unit's much more expensive GNote 10.1 plastic tablet (still a great tablet but too much plastic).

FYI, the LG website actually says that the G Pad uses a Slimport and provides instructions. LG G PAD V500 HDTV CONNECTION.
Anyone know if this tablet supports App2SD?
Sadly no. Although, one owner here was able to just manually move their Dead Trigger 2 app over to the sdcard and play it.

I had the blue line again so I took my tablet back to Best Buy for a new one. I am glad I did my first one had a good amount of light bleed in the top right and left corners this new one has next to no light bleed. So far the new one has been perfect...hope it stays that way.
