Smile Amazon Market

Those on BB that are making the switch to Android be sure to download on your PC the Amazon market and then you can get it on your smart phone. Daily free app is a great tool of Amazon and I have gotten many apps that would had cost otherwise.
Just thought it is worth sharing.........don't know if everyone knows about it or not, but those on Android Central do. It is cool having a free app everyday if it is an app you are interested in.

It's pure gold. Every now and then, they have some great picks. I believe today's free app is a printing app worth $12!

I have also picked up a few other nice ones, like Business Calendar Pro and App 2 SD Premium.

Plus, they allow you to use one purchase on multiple devices concurrently. If, like me, you have a multiple Android household, this is great.

Only drawback is the Appstore must remain installed on device for apps to work, but it is worth it IMHO.

What separates Business Calendar Pro, from the rest, like Jorte? Same goes for app2sd premium?

The PrinterShare mobile app is a total win. I have it on both my Thrive tablets and the ThunderBolt and i use it with a Mobile battery powered Bluetooth printer. I hope everyone who didn't already have it was able to get it yesterday from Amazon!

Biz Calendar Pro is not that different from Jorte... I liked the widgets. The free version of quote functional.

App 2 SD same as the free version minus the ads.

I want to love the amazon market, but they charged me for something they advertised as free. Not the only time Amazon screwed me over, but it's already planted a bad seed in my mind. As of right now, Amazon has no presence (sans business reasons) in my life.

Yes the amazon market is nice...but one thing I love and hate about it at the same time is that it saves all your apps in your history...free and purchased. Nice if you need to reinstall, but a pain for dumb ones you download on a whim and then decide you'll never use again.

Not sure...haven't seen any repeats that I recall. Every morning as part of my "decompression" techniqueafter the alarm goes off I check the amazon market for the free app. If I think I'll use it down the road (as was the case with the printing app) I get it.

No, I have never seen them repeat apps either. I, too, check apps every morning. I have 157 free apps from Amazon.

There are some good ones. Currently, I have only two installed: Business Calendar Pro and Widget locker (WL isn't free, but there is a sale at Amazon, so it is 50% off currently).

Got business calendar when it was free, paid full price for widget locker; but its that good, I'd do it again if I had to. Love being able to pull down the notification bar without unlocking the screen.
