I recently purchased a Motorola XOOM for a great bargain price and I've got it all customized the way I like it. However, there are a few things I'm wondering about that hopefully a senioer XOOMER can answer for me.

1. What would you say the best Twitter application for an Android tablet running Ice Cream Sandwich is? I've taken a look at a lot of them (TweetCaster, Plume, TweetComb) and most of them fall short or have slow dreadful user interfaces.

What would you say is the best?

I originally had plans to use the Seesmic Twitter application (shown below) however it isn't available and we haven't heard anything about it for a year now.



2. What game controllers are compatible with the Motorola XOOM? I'm looking to play some games on the XOOM and I tried using a wireless XBOX 360 remote with a USB cable into my USB host cable but it didn't work.

I purchased this device (DealExtreme) and when I plug a USB key in or a USB mouse it is deteced so I'm guessing it works, but now I just need to know what game controllers work.

3. What other tablet specific applications (preferably Ice Cream Sandwich designed) would you suggest I get?


Completely different note; is it just me or does the 8tracks application not work on the Motorola XOOM?

Thanks :)

Any USB gamepads will work. The Xbox controller needs drivers for the wireless dongle. Also, PS3 + Wii controllers also work.

As far as apps.. Evernote, Quickoffice HD (or similar), perhaps..
