Any way to access republic bank online using an android browser? Scotia and fcb are easily usable but the Java script on republic does not run on android. Any ideas?

I tried it on chrome and android built in browser but it did not work for Republic bank online.

try dolphin browser or dolphin HD

Soooo ... I'm giving up my iPad to get an android tablet, I decided on the Note 10.1 and the Asus Transformer Infinity

The transformer is around 70 dollars more for the 32 gig (including the keyboard)

Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (32GB, Deep Grey)
$549.99

ASUS TF700T-B1-GR 10.1-Inch Tablet (Gray)
$488.00
Asus Transformer Infinity TF700T Mobile Docking - Amethyst Gray (TF700T-DOCK-GR)
$132.39

But the note with that digital pen is a kind of a turn on tbh.
Apparently the Note 10.1 cannot handle flash whereas the Asus can, the asus can take more than one SD card (i think) one in the keyboard and another in the tablet itself.

The Note 10.1 has 2 GB ram which is twice as much as the Asus has, they both have quad core processors 1.4GHz The camera on the Asus is better in the back and can record 1080p video (not that I would hold a big brick in my hand to record video but im just sayin) I wish I could demo these two tablets on my own before making a choice lol


On the fence right now


Lisa is ugly

Leaning toward the Note 10.1 tho, even if the Asus has the better hardware

Stillll looking for them samsung earbuds tho

[christopherwilliams2]

I would go with the Note.

1. Wider development community
2. Quicker access to Android updates (JB and KLp etc)

I actually don't like android as a phone device still though. It still lacks the umf that iOS has.

we in the same boat bro, im a designer and the S pen will be useful. However i need to research the export format options of the stuff you create on the tablet to see if its compatible with my graphic programs.

But the Asus is calling my name!

[Greypatch]

i would hold off on buying a Kindle at this time too. new models expected to be announced soon...

Amazon holding press event on September 6th: new Kindles on the way?

Honestly I wouldn't recommend it. I have one, and the touch screen is VERY laggy in my opinion. Also, the available apps are limited, unless of course you jailbreak it. Even in general use it has some noticeable lag.

If you going for an android tablet at that $199 price point, I'd say go with the Google Nexus 7.

Yes go with the nexus 7. But you should wait to see what amazon is delivering as they are going to vastly improve the Kindle fire. Don't buy the current one yet at all.

[zcarz]

am i correct in thinking that all laptops have dlna support built in? I have a Dell XPS L702X if it matters. my firewall is disabled and network disc and file sharing enabled on my laptop, but when i go to enable DLNA on my Samsung S3, the whole list is greyed out, I can't even turn on file sharing and i don't know why.. anyone can help?

[pete]

Install allshare on the laptop.

I'm having a problem with my note and I can't see the files shared in allshare on my pc. Works fine on my S2 and my Galaxy Player but with the Note, only thing showing up in the list is the windows media player server on the PC but no files show up when I open that.

I can browse the shared movies on the S2 and play them fine, just not working with the PC. The note unfortunately is on Gingerbread and no OTA update available (one of the Digi phones) so I guess that may be the problem. Isn't such a big deal, more of a little nuisance.

Hold off all buying anything now unless you REALLY NEED something.
Everyone has an update before the Xmas season.

[Captainzaak]

Bmobile has a special on the S3 going on right now.

PREPAID$3,499.00
POSTPAID$2,999.00

[ZeroOne]

What model of the S3 they have?

Based on experiences posted here wrt updates on the S2 ill hold off from recommending this.

[M_2NR]

I honestly don't get it. Why hold off from buying in on android if u can't/won't do your own modifications/custom updates. I mean. Isn't that what android OS is about?
Is best ulyuh buy an iOS device and not worry about updates.

NO.

That is NOT what Android is about.

And is why Google is trying to get everyone moving in the opposite direction from what you assume to be the Android way of life.

The openess of Android is allowing the user to install, modify and use their device any way they choose — "modifications/custom updates". But not having the millions and millions of regular users at the mercy of their carriers for updates that their devices are more than capable of running, thereby forcing users to have to do their own modification/custom updates. That is the key difference there.
