Must Have Apps (No Games)
1 TV Streamer - This is an Excellent application for watching tons of tv shows....you can go to the marketplace and download the lite version to see how it works. I absolutely love this app.
2. Movie Stream - Same devs that came up with TV shows stream has now released movie steam and my god is this an awesome app! tons of movies with tons of mirrors...incase one of the links don't work. Definately a must have app for those who wish they had netflix.
3. Rockplayer - This is the best video player by far. It plays all video formats.....lets call it the vlc player for the xoom.
4. Netflix - Whoa.....netflix doesnt work for you? well lets change that.....get yourself a little app called splashtop in the marketplace. it works flawlessly with the server running on your pc. Netflix and hulu both work well with this app.
5. Flash 10.2 - I'm sure I don't need to write on the importance of flash....if you own a xoom.....you must have been waiting for this....so therefore you have it.
6. Swarm Torrent Client - A lightweight bittorrent client that supports multiple simultaneous downloads and integrates with file managers such as the next must have app......ES File Explorer. (use swarm as your client.....no need to use a computer to transfer downloads!!!! Download straight to your xoom)
7. ES File Explorer - This app allows you to view all the files and folders of your xoom. This is a must have for when your downloading torrents straight to your xoom.
8. Gtunes - I chose gtunes over frostwire because it is more stable and it has multiple search engines integrated.
9. Pulse News - This is the best news/social/entertainment app. Pages and Isles of news. It is beautiful and a must have application.
10.Advanced Task Killer Pro - This app is a must for killing all the apps that are running in the background. its hard to keep track of running apps at times....so this is essential.
Ofcourse there are tons of other hidden goodies.....Please post some of your favorites that I may have missed....please no games.....we are talking strictly of applications. I am currently looking for something close to garageband.....so that i can edit some music on my xoom.
also for those of you that are using your default browser....make your life easier and tap on settings within the browser (top right corner) ....settings/Labs and check the box for quick controls. now while in the browser you can just touch the left or right side of the screen and you have all you need to browse right there......refresh/bookmark/back/forward......it makes life alot easier.
