I was able to get the Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet and really like the use of the stylus. The ThinkPad tablet is running Honeycomb 3.1 and is like most tablets except for a few things. Has some nice security features to enable remote wipe, it encrypts the external SD Card.

I wonder if I can get this here in India for the same price, $99. Been waiting to buy this for a while.
anyone know if it's possible to load the pdf app with annotation capabilities from the Jetstream onto the Thinkpad? Seems superior to ezPDF or RepliGo.
Notes app ported
It would be great if we could get the notes app from the Jetstream/Flyer ported to Thinkpad. The evernote integration looks great.
Anyone know if this is possible?
I would post a link to the evernote blog post about it, but I do not have enough posts yet. If interested, go to evernote's blog:
blog [dot] evernote [dot] com and look for the post "HTC Tablets and Evernote" from 09-02-2011.
I would love to have that notes program on a 10" tablet, but $700 plus contract is way more than I can spend.
too expensive to make it worthwhile IMO
and it's only a Single processor
i'll much better go for any of they existing dual core android tablets
According to the Lenovo website, the thinkpad (the tablet with the pressure sensitive pen) has a tegra 2 dual core 1 GHz. And with a wifi only version for $500 is more in line with my budget. Just would love to have the note app from the htc jetstream.
And the att website lists the jetstream with a 1.5 GHz dual core snapdragon. So, I am not sure what tablet you are referring to as being only a single processor.

Realize now you were thinking of the ideapad instead of the thinkpad. It is only a single core (and also not worth it in my opinion). However, the dual core thinkpad, I think would be quite handy with the pressure sensitive pen.
I am an architect and frequently have to make sketches and annotate drawings during meetings, on the construction site, etc... Having them automatically sync to my evernote account (like the htc app) would be great.

I have installed the Evernote program and their Skitch add-on (they bought the company and made it freeware for Android: http://thenextweb.com/apps/2011/08/...android-app-ready-ios-and-windows-on-the-way/) and it works but it crashes frequently. Seems to be a problem when using the pen while the hand rests on the display at the same time. The built in lenovo application works fine though - and it recognizes the pressure of the pen too which Skitch doesn't.
Does the Lenovo come with an app that let's you draw on pdfs with the pen?

I'm trying to find an answer for this too for the exact same reason. I'm a total noob to the forum but I believe the appropriate action here is *bump*
Yes, search YouTube. I saw someone demo it.
I have watched every YouTube I could find on this tablet up to Sunday. Despite its suboptimal layout of ports and cameras I am ordering one: hoping amazon gets some stock soon cause I don't want to wait a month on Lenovo!

Hello All-
I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the vitalsource bookshelf app on the nexus 7. I am looking to buy a tablet specifically for use with this app because I need something for my study materials, but the reviews of the app are poor. It seems like a hardware hog so I figure that the Nexus 7 should be able to run it fairly smoothly but don't want to drop $250 to find out the app still sucks on it. Obviously I get to keep the tablet as a toy after...
Any insights appreciated
Hello, my college uses Vitalsource Bookshelf as well.
However, back when i was using it on Android, I had a galaxy tab 10.1. It did not run very well on that tablet, so I ended up trading it for what I could get...which was actually a windows tablet lol.
The reason the galaxy tab 10.1 was so bad is because vitalsource is a very resource heavy application and the tab 10.1 couldn't really handle it.
I think the Nexus 7 would handle it much better (I have no experience with it personally, just with the app). It has two more cores and a much better processor than my tablet had.
Go for it dude, worst case scenario is you gotta send it back for a refund right?

Thanks for the input. I searched "google nexus 7 and vitalsource bookshelf" and your post on XDA came up from early September which is why I was hoping you had found an answer. Unfortunately I didn't have enough posts to post in the developer forum.
This is a question, so you actually put it in the correct forum. If you'd put this in the development forum, you likely would've gotten only responses about how you're not supposed to post this kind of stuff there.
No problem on the input. If I could've gotten a Nexus 7 when I traded my Gtab away I probably would've but no big deal, my tablet runs it so I'm a happy camper.

I know, really old thread but what did you end up getting to run bookshelf? I have a daughter in grade school who has to use the exact same program for her books and it's a nightmare to use on a Nook Color (it hangs, crashes, and when it does work it's slow as hell).
It sounds like it's a poorly coded app that really doesn't work right on anything correctly so does anyone know of an alternate program to view these books? This forum seems to be all about workarounds, maybe somebody has something.

Evernote Now Integrated Into the Samsung Galaxy Note 3
Evernote’s goal is to help people around the world remember everything on every device that they use. Over the years, it’s been inspiring to see the range of smart products that have come to the market that incorporate Evernote, from phones and tablets to cameras and refrigerators.
Today, we’re very excited to announce a new partnership with Samsung that will deeply integrate Evernote into the core note taking capabilities of the popular Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Now, all S Note users will get the benefit of immediate note synchronization from their Samsung mobile device to every other device and computer where Evernote is installed. Like all notes in Evernote, they’ll instantly become searchable, can be tagged for quick organization and shared with others.
In addition, Evernote will offer S Note users increased monthly capacity to accommodate all of their notes, images and files.
Over the past several years, Samsung has continually created new and unexpected products that enhance the lives of consumers. We’re excited to be working with such an innovative and forward-thinking company.

Do you think that we'll see Note 8.0 S-note integration in the near future ?
I would most certainly think so. Seems to me that Evernote will (sort of) replace (or enhance) functionalities of S-Note and I couldn't see why this shouldn't work on other S-Pen-devices.
Probably we might have to wait somewhat longer though.

I don't think it would be wise of Samsung to not include the feature for other S-Pen-devices. There are lots of people who use a note II (and soon note 3) as their phone AND the Note 8 or 10 as their tablet. Not being able to sync between those just wouldn't make sense.

Manual sync of my Note 2 and 10.1 has screwed up all my notes. Some are even locked and I can't figure out how to unlock these. Hopefully Sammy has fixed this cross sync issues.

dropsync is one of the most essential apps i have ever used...i love it
I don't know about you guys but when I use dropSync it didn't work properly it constantly cause my snote to say syncing notes which took about a minute to finish
I was using it to sync my nose between my Galaxy Note 2 and Galaxy note 10.1 but found it way too sluggish to work properly and use it as my daily driver for syncing notes between the two devices
this is why I really like the the evernote integration because not only will it sync between devices but I can sync it with my desktop as well
but curiously I haven't been able to find a single video or a tutorial on how this is supposed to work can somebody like one
I just bought the Note 3, and am a huge Evernote user so the new integration on the new version of S-Note has been awesome for me. The downside of having the Note 8.0 now is what is mentioned above. I used to use Dropsync to sync my S-Notes folders between my Note 2 and my Note 8.0. Now that the file types are different, .spd files rather than the older S-Note's .snb files, I can no longer do that. I even tried syncing S-Notes using my Samsung account hoping they would have some kind of conversion happen behind the scenes-no dice. I can view Notes created on my Note 3 (.spd) on my Note 8.0 via Evernote, or using this app I found on the Samsung App Store http://www.samsungapps.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.samsung.spdviewer , but I can no longer edit those new notes on my 8.0 due to the new file type. I'm really hoping Samsung hurries up with an update so I can have the new version of S-Note on my 8.0 and get back to my old syncing ways. If you want to know more about how Evernote is working with the Note 3, which will be the same on the new 10.1 2014 Edition, feel free to ask whatever questions you'd like. I've tested that a bunch now as well and have been happy with the results.

Hi Nate, I hope you are well and happy.
I currently use an original N7000 and in March 2014 (when my contract is up) I'll be looking to upgrade. I'll probably buy a new Galaxy note 3 as a handset (I'm in need of a new watch as well and the Galaxy Gear is a possibility) also air command looks sweet and I'm keen to try it.
I'm also hoping to buy my first tablet PC before January as I'm a motorcycling Computer Science under-grad and looking to reduce the weight I need to carry to university by leaving my 11.6 inch Acer Aspire 1825ptz touchscreen netbook at home and taking a thinner lighter tablet to lectures. I've been using Evernote for over 7 months now and love it, although I miss S-Note functionality a bit (running cyanogen 10.2-20131107-nightly-n7000 mod.) I was considering buying the 8 inch Galaxy Note but having read this thread I'm more inclined to get the 10.1 inch 2014 Note now.
I'll mostly be reading papers (.pdf) on it in the Kindle app (see attached) which I'll want to annotate as I'm reading, view powerpoint presentations in it (I use kingston office for this on my N7000 so I for see no problems with the 10.1 inch) again that I'll want to take notes onto.
I guess what I'd like to know please:
1. How exactly do the 2 apps integrate? Is it you open SNote and it's got a share to ever note option? Or vica versa? Or are they completely integrated into one app?
2. Do you think a Galaxy 3 / Gear / 10.1 inch 2014 Note is the optimal solution for the remainder of my studies and then more importantly do you think it'd be a good solution for a trainee teacher? (yrs 11 - 18)
3. Did I read somewhere that the 10.1 inch or the Galaxy 3 is going to have an IR blaster? (I could use a decent remote control)
Thanks in advance for any help / youtube review / links to relevant posts / URL's you can give.
All I want is Inking support in Evernote. The only reason I use S-Note at all is because of its default support for inking notes, but if I could use the stylus in Evernote on both my Windows 8 and Android devices, I'd be set.
I used S note a lot on galaxy Note.
Then bought Note 2 - used S-note even more.
Then I bought Note 10.1 - and got dissapointed, the S-note app for 10.1 were older and missed some fetures.
Now I bought Note 3 - a much newer "S note" app, that converts the notes to a new format. - that note 10.1 never got an update for...
So. using Samsung proprietary app, which they (dirty bastards) do not update using Google Play, is a big fail. It makes me stuck with old version of the app, something that would not happen to any normal Android app on google Play.
Morale of this story is: do not trust apps that are not updated via google play for all devices.
Solution ?
I've tried to copy the note3.apk from note3 to my note 10.1 , but for some reason, it fails to install every time.. and I do not know why ?

I mean we've been on 4.1.2 since release and 4.3 is rolling out to other devices. Couldn't we at least be on 4.2.2? Come on Saumsung. I love your devices but this is craziness.

Check out Lecture Notes, works well & offers may more features than all versions of stock software. Since when do the hardware mfg's have to offer all software? They don't provide updates via Android Store because they can offer updates via firmware, so why should they have to pay Google for a service they already provide? My advise open your wallet instead of your mouth.

Well, Samsung does not need to pay google for free updates via Play, - and could resctrict it to their devices.
On the other hand, they could provice updates using Samsung apps market, which they do not....
finally you write "because they can offer updates via firmware" - and that's the main problem: they did not.
- While you are prety cocky with "My advise open your wallet instead of your mouth" - you brought one great suggestion for an app... purchased.
thanks.

I must be missing something here. My notes work fine on my Note 10.1 (2012 edition) and my Note II.
There are some minor differences, but I can still read them on both devices.
OP is fruatrated because not all Samsung devices are using the same version of note-taking software, right?

My take is the newest version on the Note 3 will convert notes from 2/10 to a newer format. And the 2/10 do not YET have the newer version of SNote to use the newer format.

Ahhh, so when you work on things with your Note 3, they are no longer compatible with your Note 2/10.1(2012) ... that's no good.

The converted notes become invisible for old s note application. (not much to screenshot)
I would share the current s-note3 app if anyone is better at finding out why it won't install on the 10. 1

It will probably roll out with the next OS update. Samsung committed to take the 10.1 as far as 5.0. I'm betting it will go to 4.3 before Christmas since compatibility with Gear needs 4.3 and they want you to buy a Gear for Christmas!

The new SNOTE stores its files in a differnent folder on the sd card and in additon, the old snote could handle folders of notes, but the new one doesn't seem to support this.
EDIT: It does support folder but you have to tap the "recent note" and then the menu allows you to create a folder. The only way to possible share between verison I can see is to export from Note3 to pdf and then import the pdf in Note 2. Sucks..

I was also quite disappointed with S Note. I used Samsung Note 10.1 (2012)'s S Note extensively, and sync them to the Samsung account. Just bought the 2014 Note 10.1, and to my surprise, the old S Notes don't sync over.
I resorted to Syncing with Evernote, and then opening up in Evernote in the 2014 edition. When I click on the notes, it says I have to covert them to the new format. When I did, it looked like everything was mucked up. Diagrams all went out of alignment etc.

The best would be if somebody managed to install note3.apk from a newer device, on the 10.1
Do you still have the old one? If so export the notes to PDF. Maybe lots of work but should get them moved.

Well, it looks like Microsoft is finally inching closer towards releasing Microsoft Office for Android tablets, and I'm sure quite a lot of you with Note Pro 12.2" tablets would be interested to try it out.
(sorry, can't post links yet, but just google for 'office android tablet', there is a lot of information released on news sites in the last 24 hours.)
Unfortunately, the preview sign-up says they are only supporting tablets 7" - 10.1"
I tried signing up for a preview and chose 10.1" but when it asked for the tablet model I chose other and typed in "Samsung Galaxy Note Pro"... I guess I might get rejected
Can anyone share their experiences if they've been able to get the preview running on the Note Pro?

Not sure you will get the automatic updates to office if downloaded from that site.

That's the old crappy version (15), not version 16 beta which is what this thread is about.
Seems the latest beta supports our tablet without having to side load. Just download it from the play store like normal.

Yup, the Beta from the 16th allowed for screens larger than 10.1". Some people are reporting that you MUST have Office 365 to edit docs with the latest beta *IF* your screen is over 10.1". While many are complaining about it, this is consistent with their policy for Windows tablets. With Windows tablets, the cutoff is 9". iPads ...... well they are no "laptop replacement" tablets yet so it's free on all of them.
It's rather annoying, but not a deal breaker for me. I ran out and picked up a 4 year university subscription as I currently qualify for it. The latest preview runs smoothly, but at the moment I still honestly prefer HWord.
Not finding it.

Did you follow the instructions on your official Beta invitation? You must have an invite and be a member of the private Google+ community.

Wingdo, I didn't do the beta thing, so I will have to wait until the official release. Thanks for responding.
