My use cases:
  1. It is my only phone, used with either the urbanears plattan wired headset or with the jawbone era, as the situation requires
  2. I use it as a viewfinder with MoPhotos for my DSLR, the screen is great for this, but MoPhotos desperately needs an update to allow for writing to /sdcard/extStorages/SdCard (I've rooted and fixed the write permission on the SD card)
  3. Used for post-processing of photos for some use cases (aviary, painteresque, photo mate and similar)
  4. Reading books and comics via kobo and the comixology app
  5. Music with aforementioned plattans
  6. Basically, it is my information hub with duetoday, evernote, SLR (for light rigging), mindmapping and other similar software...
  7. I do my online banking almost exclusively with it...
  8. Traffic control
  9. Only occasionally: movies
  10. Blog publishing, remote desktop etc. with a bluetooth keyboard (though swype is great, even used multilingually as I do)
  11. Last, though not least, gaming - if I don't have the mental oomph for more useful stuff, I clear my mind with games...

Unfortunately my Tab is only wifi but it doesn't leave the house so that is not an issue, plus I use my phone to make a hotspot and can use that, it is counterproductive some may say.

I use my tab to browse websites, watch VOD here in Poland, mostly tv shows, it is my main calender. youtube videos sometimes, browsing forums, news and some games, but I rarely game. I did use it back home as my main device instead of my massive laptop which I did not want to lug around and it did a rather good job. Skype and web. Finally ebooks and various documents.

I'm in Northern California but I haven't yet run across anyone else with it.

Along with general stuff you use a tablet for, my main use is for remote I.T. support of our users and servers - that's how i got my company to pay for it along w/ the monthly data. Also mounts on my car dashboard for music, navigation, and Torque app.

I'm a londoner and fellow 7.7 owner. Haven't seen anyone with one but everyone i show it to is interested in buying one. Amoled just blows everyone away.
The form factor is perfect for me. small enough to be portable and large enough to enjoy websites.
I'm a freelance 3d artist and use my device to show off my portfolio. My images look really punchy with the screen.
Also it is my main diary/pda device to organise my life.

I'm from austria and I own a P6810 (WiFi).
I'm using it to play around with several things (Root-Tools, my own implementation of the Chamaeleon-Project) and some other tasks:
Showing Photos and homemade videos to friends and family
While driving for navigation
As my Feed-Reader
Watching short videos and news
Surfing the web
Casual gaming

Most of the time I'm leaving it at home for my girlfriend, which is playing more and reading (mostly texts for university as she is student).
If I have it with me I'm carrying it in my jacket, so it's rarely to see from outside.

I don't know anyone else owning this device, but I don't regret paying nearly 600$ for it. It's fast (except wakeing up) and stable, superior screen, light and of a good quality.
But (as there is always a but) I'm not sure if I would recommend it to someone else, as it is rather expensive with only little benefits to other tablets. Especially if I compare it to Google Nexus 7" which has the newest updates for less than half the price (even with 16GB) with compareable power and full access to tegra-games.
