What did you get? I have not had that problem. I put up with a few commercials on some apps, but not obtrusive. I am still waiting for me i phone to arrive..
I got the Nexus 7. I have already had a video chat with grandkids, signed up for the NYT online and downloaded 3 books to read. Next up is adding the Amazon Kindle app so I can get more books and magazines.
And all this with the girl behind the counter saying I should really get the Kindle because the Nexus would be over my head. Oh to be 19 and in charge of the world again.
I was reading everything the app is allowed to do. I mentioned it to a friend and she explained that the calorie counter does not access my gmail contacts but the contacts I add to the calorie counter app. OK, that's different. But one of the permissions is that the camera can operate without my authorization. Not a fan of that. I think they could explain it better.
