[ale] OT: a interesting new Android 4.04 based toy to play with

[Ron Frazier (ALE)]

Where does one get the apps?  I tried installing the google play apk from my other tablet but it locks up.  The zip file from the link mentioned in the prior post installs the older market app, not the new play app.

Sent from my Android Acer A500 tablet with bluetooth keyboard and K-9 Mail.
Please excuse my potential brevity.

(To whom it may concern.  My email address has changed.  Replying to former
messages prior to 03/31/12 with my personal address will go to the wrong
address.  Please send all personal correspondence to the new address.)

(PS - If you email me and don't get a quick response, you might want to
call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
mailing lists and such.  I don't always see new email messages very quickly.)
