Android Market celebrates 10 Billion app downloads. To celebrate, Google will sell selected apps for 10 CENTS over the next 10 days. Selection of apps will change daily.
Unfortunately Asphalt 6 HD can't be downloaded for 10cents on the transformer
I ended up buying heaps of those 10 for my phone and transformer. Would love to have bought Asphalt though.
10c apps
Just had a look on market and there is nothing there about 10billion apps or any 10c apps.

Not sure what market you went to, but large announcement on home page announcing this.
The only app I would want on 10 cent promo is Diceplayer but doubt it will be on the list.
The funny thing is, I got most of these apps free from the Amazon "free app of the day" specials. LOL Minecraft was a great deal.

Amazon deals were US-only.
This is global. I just bought a crap-load of apps and games for 10p (well 7), more shopping for 10p stuff tomorrow...
It's all very decent stuff too, no crap or old stuff here.
Sorry, about a billion of them were mine.

I'm in Canada. There are ways of getting Amazon to work anywhere, you just have to look. I'm glad Google is doing this. It helps to ignight more passion for the devices we use.

just bought minecraft, even though i have no desire to play it. couldn't pass up 10 cents though
Same here! Figured, maybe one day... Maybe. Picked up nearly all of them, though I couldn't get asphalt 6. Will keep checking daily, as I do Amazon. Was just wondering earlier today if the market would ever do what Amazon is doing and, well. Close. It ain't free, but still!

oh cool field runners is in the 10 cents bucket
I got minecraft too. Mainly in the hope that they add survival....
The same apps still. Are we sure there'll be 10 new apps each day? Kinda sounds too good to be true.
Ok, I'll admit it. I'm an idiot. I'm having trouble finding these 10 cents apps. Please link or tell me how to find them.
Nevermind. It's that big-ass logo on top. Haha.
Got Minecraft and GLWG instantly
Now just have to wait to add the "PC" features to MineCraft... muhahahaha
Bought all of them, excellent deal, who could turn down Minecraft for 10 cents!?

Why not? What happens? I am surprised.
Wonder if there are many other apps that will not work on the transformer?
PS: Wow, I am to cheap to pay $0.10 to find out myself.

Yes, I got those two plus the sketchpad thing, just because I have no idea how to play minecraft though, don't you have to have a server or something? I'll have to read up on it.

Just wanted to add a happy voice to the discussion here. I'm involved in social media as a consultant, I must always be on, always connected, using my TF via a wifi hotspot on my phone is a LOT more pleasant an experience than working via my phone with it's tiny little screen
Love sitting outside on my porch,working while sipping cofee without having to lug a hot,heavy laptop with me.
Thank you Asus for this terrfic device, I also thank you also for listening & responding to the feedback users are giving you on this forum!
i agree, this is a pretty awesome device
Ya~
ASUS did it well this time. Good job !
same here.
The only thing stopping me from using the TF exclusively is that there is ONE app not available yet....when it is...bye bye laptop....you' stayin' at home!

Lol Wooot
I agree, this is the best Android tablet release to date. ASUS has done a great job in designing (and pricing) this device.
I use it for business, and this weekend my wife asked if she could use it to look up something on the internet - it is now on her birthday wish list. She is an iPhone user, BTW.
I love my TF a little more each day! I love the freedom it gives me, no more having to pack and lug a laptop bag around with me!
Its the unhappy folks who tend to make their voice heard, while the happy rest of us enjoy life, right? glad to see someone give praise to the awesome device Im sittin on my porch drinkin a beer, listening to the radio and browsing the web on my tablet right now (colorado) Much love ASUS, and asus, please give us tegra3 transformer2 as soon as possible! haha
lol.. I just posted my own TF love post before reading this one. I totally agree!

If he's referring to netflix then just use splashtop and stream it as it runs GREAT on the tablet. Being able to text message, make a call, and watch netflix is a great feeling
I used to ask myself what was the point of a tablet and now I can finally understand the answer to that question.
Next week I think I am reordering mine. I sent it back to Amazon because it was having problems, but I am moving in a few days so I will wait until the move is done.
I like the lazy factor of a tablet I still feel much more productive on my PC, but I can't lounge around and poke at things on it. I also kind of miss dungeon defenders... I was thinking about the fact that the TF2 is just over the horizon, but I can afford to get a new TF and gift that to my little sister. That seems like a win-win if I ever heard one.

Amazon is sold out now but they last had the B6O revision so the next batch will probably be the same or higher. If you're going to reorder, now would be a good time.

Has anyone heard when the GT10.1 might be getting Netflix? Or Google Movies?
I love this tablet, but I don't like the lack of optimized tablet apps and the missing Netflix. I'm debating whether to hold onto this tablet and wait because I really do love the look and feel of the tablet and of Honeycomb or if I want to return it for an iPad 2 and come back to an Android tablet in a couple months (or a year) when there are more apps. So...that's why I'm curious about Netflix.
No word yet, but you're better off following this thread in the apps section:

I bought it today and I think it sucks. I just cant leave swype. Its too good.
But I did buy Minecraft. If you have friends that will link up with you (works with iphone) over wifi then its an insanely fun game. Even alone its a good time waster and just a fun way to be creative. Glad that I waited to buy it though because the regular price is 7$. Deal win.
Edit: I can only pray for titanium backup to show on this list
I like swype also, but I like how swift key predicts words. There are a few things I need to get used to with it, but overall I think I go faster on it. Also I hate how swype picks up incorrect spellings and continues to throw those out as what you wanted to say.

This might not be all of it yet though, as their blog includes wording like "every day you’ll be able to choose from a collection of apps from some of the world’s top developers" and "we’ll also be offering some special collections". Here's the link to the blog post -> http://officialandroid.blogspot.com/2012/09/google-play-hits-25-billion-downloads.html
EDIT: looks like that might be it for the apps. They do have a sale on movies and books and whatnot, too, but the prices aren't that low. It's stuff like "25 books for XXX dollars each" and "25 movies for XXX dollars each". I'm still getting a few of the apps, though.
EDIT 2: Already had Draw Something, but I just bought Asphalt 7, the office suite, and Angry Birds Space.
I am not very impressed by this app selection. Does anybody know why those books that they have are/were banned?

My last bump was because they changed the selection of apps on sale. They just changed them again, so anyone that looked before should check it out again. There are some pretty good ones - Mass Effect: Infiltrator, Amazing Alex, HD Widgets, PicSay Pro - all for a quarter each.
