Amazon market on this tablet? If you live outside the US can you gain access to all the apps in the android market on this tablet as you would if you lived in the US?

This tablet supports the Android Play Store. Never tried Amazon Market. If Amazon Market is available on Android then this tablet should be able to access it; if it supports only Amazon devices then it won't.

Yes you can and other app stores as long as you click on unknown sources. This option can be found in settings under applications or security. You can download the amazon store by following this link http://www.amazon.com/getappstore. You can also try 1mobilemarket which looks identical to google play

Google does not ship international. So I can see people from outside of US paying more because of the availability.

I did not buy Kindle fire HD because the reviews were clear Amazon had bloated it with adware. I bought a xoom because they are so clean of apps when you buy them. I too found my Amazon prime videos will not play on it. Now we all know they could make an app for it but nope. They really really want to sell you the 24 hr "hard sell" pop-up machine that is the Kindle android. If anybody finds a way to watch prime videos on Xoom, I'd be really pleased.

It is quite easy to download load the tablet comes with amazon and market place apps so I just download from those, you can also choose to download from Google play also

I cannot give you a definite answer on this, as I have not tried those in particular. However, if you install SuperSU, OTA Rootkeeper, and Nova Launcher, it will override the proprietary software launcher, and allow installation of say Google's Play Store. This makes the tablet comparable to any standard tablet in regard to function, so based on that I would think that the Amazon stuff would work as well. I have since sold my Meep to my neighbor, so I cannot test this for you :(

I have the Amazon App store installed. You can install it by going to this link on the tablet and install: http://www.amazon.com/gp/mas/get/androidIf this link does not work you can google "amazon app store" on the tablet and find the link.

Android 2.2 is available as an upgrade from Velocity Micro (go on the web site for instructions)... but don't expect any improvements:- Google Market is *STILL* not available- Most of the best applications out there (i.e. Netflix) are still not compatible with this device because of the internal CPU (it's a MIPS and not an ARM).Advantages of the upgrades:- You get Google Reader + Google Books (Google accounts works).

Download a diffrent app store like amazon or some other which would allow you to download android apps!

the only way to download apps is from the amazon app store or quick jar. It is not a google play compatible device. If app store wont work the only way Ive found to get it back is to factory reset the tablet and start from scratch. Basically the tablet is worthless. I tossed mine. Complete waste of money.

Are the iphone on Amazon unlocked or locked. Can they be used outside the U.S at the moment?

No because Amazon has not released an app for Android, only for their Kindle Fire tablets and the iPad I think. You can however watch it in browser. However given the release of Googles Nexus 7, it makes more sense to save up and get that for $200. If you want a cheap tablet, there are other options for $50-$70 that have basically the same hardware as this tablet. I recommend saving up and getting the Nexus 7.

Hello Sanjay Srivatsa, you have mentioned "but you can specify Brazil when you order.". Are you saying there is an option to buy it with Brazil MAP on it with lifetime updates directly from AMAZON? Can you please explain how to do that?Thank you,

99% of the time an app you might be interested in will be available for easy download and installation on Google's Android Market, now known as Google Play. Some interesting apps are available through the Amazon App Store. Here's the issue: you can't install Google Play in this tablet. So whenever an app is said to be available on Google Play, you won't be able to access the download link locations provided there. The workaround for this is: use an alternative app store. And there are hundreds of them. I use Aptoide, because they have a search engine that finds the apps you're looking for in a vast group of stores. The only drawback is that it is not as easy to use as Google Play (in which just one click is enough to get the job done.) With Aptoide you need to learn how to look for an app and you will also need to install the Aptoide app in order to search and install apps through their market. Once you get used to Aptoide, you'll be searching and downloading apps easy and fast.

I don't quite understand but I haven't attempted to buy a non Amazon app. Had tablet 2 1/2 yrs with LIGHT ISE.

Amazon app store is accessible on any tablet because it is browser accessible. Most of the apps are only for Android or Kindle devices but it is accessible from anything with a web browser.
