I downloaded Thumb Keyboard 4 a while back when it was a free app. I also had Swiftkey 3 for my Droid Incredible a while back and liked it so I tried Swiftkey Tablet for my 7 with my google money. I gotta say, I liked the way Thumb Keyboard split the keyboard in half in both portrait and landscape mode where as Swiftkey just split in half for landscape. I do most of my typing in portrait so Thumb Keyboard was more ergonomic for me.

Just sharing my experience, everyone's got a different one. Have fun with your tablet, this is my first tab and it's amazing. I have no desire for an iPad myself after a month with the 7. Have fun.

N.O.V.A. 3. Amazing. It's seriously like Halo/2/3 but on my friggin tablet. Wow. And yes, nobodyisherenow, you can play online just like Halo.
 
any free games you can play live with friends? kind of like gunbound preferably?

Well, NOVA3 is on sale for only $.99 right now, so I jumped on it. It's easily worth it. It's console quality, but for a console you would spend 50x that much money on it at least. And really, if you don't buy it because it's too expensive, you could always use that money to get a pack of gum... Or play 30 seconds of a game at an arcade... lol

Now, I'm not knocking your mentality. I thought that way seriously just one week ago. But I realized that every time I walk into an Apple store I see amazing things that they have on their iPads and stuff that I have to open my wallet a little bit on Android to get the same stuff. It's worth it.

But if you really must have free, you can always try Magic Strike. I haven't played it personally but it looks fun. Or Armored Strike.

The Media Importer is an absolutely essential app. Hassle-free mounting of USB drives without rooting.
