30% off QuickOffice Code!

Sorry if someone has already posted it.
I emailed the dev, and asked them why we havent gotten the code yet.... they responded today.
She apologized for the email, and gave me the code
HD30
You have to buy it from www.quickoffice.com
Haven't tried it yet, but I will in a couple hours.
Feel free to save some money!!

Well that sucks. Will they honor the code retrospectively? I also thought that the 40% introductory offer would substitute for the 30% offer...
edit: disregard...
The code works. You just need to use it with the HD version...not just the pro.

Sweet! HD30[B\] worked for me! The app is on sale right now for 14.99 from 24.99, but its only for 24 hours. And when you apply the code it brings it down to 9.99! Excellent deal! You must hurry to receive it at this price. Kudos to the OP!
To the last poster, I don't know how you only payed 7.99, but please share.
*Yes, I purchased the HD version*

It's listed... scroll down at the following link:
http://www.quickoffice.com/device-selection/
But I do see if you go to the Pro HD screen while having the Xoom as your device.. it says it is not supported. I think they just need to update their website.
2 Questions for anyone that has used/bought this in the past...
1. Do future updates come for free (all future updates and version increases)?
2. Is it possible to use this license for non-Xoom devices? Meaning, can I use it on my android phone as well? Or is that a separate license?
Thanks for the code
It worked! I just bought it and I don't even have my Xoom yet. BH just sent but I think it will arrive in Brasil just next week.
I use Quick Office in my Galaxy Tab and it was the best solution for me to use with Google Docs. Looking foward to try this HD version on Xoom.

I did the same thing xD as I'm currently waiting for GSM version of Xoom
Do any of you QuickOffice users know if the MS Excel "Get External Data From Web" function is supported in their program?
If not, are there any programs for android that do support this feature?
I checked out the QuickOffice website and did a search there, but couldn't find anything about that feature, which to me, would mean that it is not supported.
Thanks in advance.
awesome office suite for 10 bucks? Count me in. Hope it includes the updates is all.
Now that I've purchased QuickOffice HD, Google will probably release a native Google Docs app for Honeycomb.
yeah, but it will be a google app. So it wont work.
I hope they offer a similar discount when the XOOM finally gets to the UK, we just get no love over here.

Heh, and I'm still trying to find a good one.
Still works
Just wanted to bump this since the code worked for me this morning, I bought it for my G Tablet running Honeycomb and its fantastic. If I did not have to physically connect to switches for programming (hopefully with the new open accessory platform I will be able to) I would only carry my tablet around.

Honeycomb 3.1 in a French review video !

Hello,
I have not found anything on the subject here, but a french tech site has reviewed the upcoming version with the french dock with honeycomb 3.1 ! It looks smooth, and the first batch are being delivered to customers right now. We should now quite fast if they are delivered this way !
You can see it working with 3.1 here at 2:00 with resizeable widgets :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vg4H2v8T7Gs&feature=player_embedded#at=97
And he talks about it from 1:48 saying that it should come out with version 3.1.
Cheers,
Spikes
P.S. Thanks to Yanndesfyb on frandroid.com for the info

Nice find! Do you think there'll be some dumps available on french dev sites perhaps?
edit: very smooth indeed! Look at 1:15 when he's swiping like crazy. Mine is only smooth like this since I oc'ed it... stock was rather laggy
Very Cool! Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to the update.
We don't know for sure if they will be delivered this way ... mine will be here on saturday. If they are indeed coming with 3.1 we should be able to get a dump. I don't know how to do it, but I could either learn or we'll find someone to do it.
I saw the responsiveness and speed of the touchscreen/interface, it is indeed really fast ! It looks nice, the only drawback he is talking about is the delay between hitting a letter on the keyboard and the screen updating which is annoying.

Where did you order it from? Are you expecting the tablet itself, or the bundle (tablet + dock)?
There is a batch coming in of 150 transformers to the benelux. I hope they also come with 3.1! Mine is on it
But even so if this is not so, it means that 3.1 soon will be available, and we will be able to update the transformer.
Asus is doing very nice!
I want 3.1 NOW!

Agreed, i'm impressed by there software support and update policy. And yes, even rma was very fast with great communication for me. Plus, the officials in the german asus blog respond almost immediately to user questions. All this is a nice change for someone coming from a sony ericsson device

Who is selling this batch? Where can I order it?
I believe in the Netherlands it issue Computerland.nl that receives their stock today and have it in stores on Tuesday.

This would be great, my main problem with the transformer is that it can't play youtube HD fullscreen and appearantly that should be fixed with 3.1.

I ordered a bundle tablet with dock from Darty. They don't have it on shelves because the supply is too short so either you order it online (but the stock is not correctly updated), or you go to a physical store, ask for the product and pay it. They get it delivered to their store within 48 hours. I ordered mine yesterday at 7pm and it will be here tomorow morning.
You should be able to do the same at Fnac stores too.
The first ones who got it without the dock are reporting 3.0.1 honeycomb version, so it seems that they are not delivered with 3.1. Cnet must have reviewed a beta unit ... which was working perfectly ! so 3.1 is not far away but still not available.
I've just ordered mine (16 GB + dock) from Fnac with 24 hours express shipping. Unfortunately I didn't see your email in time, before placing my order (it would have been almost 30 euros cheaper going with Darty, without having to pay for shipping).
Can't wait for 3.1!!!!!!

I'm sure that if they are shipping 3.1 on the newer batches that 3.1 will be out shortly on FOTA. Can't wait!

ICS 4.0 will be coming to existing Eee Pad Transformer TF101 after January 12

I was wondering if any of you saw this announcement.

Oh wow this is awesome. If the UK gets it, then I'm sure the Netherlands will get it around the same time as well. I wonder if the Keyboard Dock still works with it though :O.
Good to know.

The dock works with the few ICS AOSP roms out there, so i'm pretty sure it will work
good news
now i know
i want to use ics
Great news...now I can have ICS on my transformer as well as my nexus.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Why wouldn't the keyboard dock work with an official ICS build??? I don't know what the basis for this question is even..? I assume the only reason early ported versions don't have dock support are simply because they are ported from xoom or aspire or other tabs that don't have docks to support..?

Is this a good deal?

Have the opportunity to get a a500 with a charger today for 225, is it a good deal and a very capable tablet?
This would be my first tablet, otherwise I was thinking of a100 or nook tablet new from best buy if I need to return.
Thanks
Ics 4.0.3
Sounds like it
I assume this is used, cause they are ~ $350 minimum new.
On ebay they go for cheapest ~ $230-250.
So if it is in good condition, with no scratches or other issues,
yes, a good deal.
It's a great tab. Been very happy.
Sorry i didn't specify, yes it is used.
Found it on Craigs list.
Only comes with charger and the tab, says he prefers his ipad 2 instead and this just collects dust.
I've seen touchpads for as low as 150, I'm the kind of person that can't make up there mind lol so I need some help.

Meh. Touchpad. It does have ICS but only in CM9 alpha 0. We should get official. Your choice.

I ordered a refurb A500 and discovered the tablet would not hold a charge. Tablet was in great condition otherwise. I actually own 3 A500 (2 16G and 1 32G I got from woot a few days back). The rear camera is pretty good. I took some Christmas pictures and they turned out really good. I also use the GPS (navigation). I think it's a great tablet. You'll be able to do a lot with it, that's for sure. With ICS due sometime in the near future, even better.
Acers store on ebay has a500 refurbs directly from them for $299.99 for a 32GB + 10$ shipping. I pulled the trigger on one 2 days ago. My first tablet so super stoked. Prevously only played around on Smartphones. Htc Hero, Evo (My Rom whore) and now Evo 3D.
