Place by me makes them. $3 a pack tax free. I buy 200 at a time, but he gives them to me in a Ziploc bag. I just stick as many as I can in the jar. Taste just like a red. Have a sample bag of menthol I haven't tried yet. I don't smoke that much, I just kind of leave them on the table and let people take what they want and just leave a couple bucks. By the time we run out there's usually enough cash to reup

Use it to view notes, surf the net and play games, of course :D

Due to its specs(and overclockability), makes it a pretty good mid-high range tablet for watching movies too.

Facebook, emails, browsing, news, Skype... basically it's very useful - there are days in which I don't need my whole laptop - this is when my Xoom kicks in. ..and of course the crapper :)

I use my Xoom for almost all my electronic needs. As I'm paralyzed and can't type very well so I use the tablet as a mouse and keyboard for my computer, quickly print off docs using Printer Share, and of course my emails, social networks, music and movies on the go, ebay, books, and really anything else I can think of.

What app do you use to make the Xoom a keyboard/mouse for the computer?

I'll be honest:

Mostly, for reading books using the kindle app, I also primarily use it for email/texting(through Google Voice since I'm stationed in Korea),

The rest:

Porn
TV episodes
Occasional movie (especially during trips)

I use my Xoom for everything. It goes everywhere... work, home, travel... I gave my laptop to my son as I no longer had any use for it. The only computer I now use is my computer at work. This is truly the best device. I love it.

Ibvpn is awesome has great speeds to get the total VPN and you can tunnel from like 20 servers around the world. P2p on 3 Netherlands servers, unless you get a more expensive plan. Then just torrent and get rid of netflix that's what I did.

I use mine so far for

PDFs
Xda forum app
Social media
Browsing
Reddit
Bluetooth to sync in my car and listen to music.
Chat with people online.
Calendar
Games here and there
Ssh into my home server.

I've only had it about a week though. Well see what else I do in the near future. Maybe I'll downgrade and grey backtrack 5 going then get my game on!

Dare I say... Work!
I have all my job photos on mine and use it for Google Calender, E-mailing, Facebook (I have a page for my business) just downloaded Writepad and now I'll use it for gas piping design/schematics/load calculations.
I do use it for web browsing to show customers products as well as between customer web surfing from paring lots or roadside to kill time between appointments.
Beats carrying the lapper... fits in my briefcase where I used to carry my photo album.:good:

I use it as a jukebox (google music) and internet machine with the HD Dock for the shed. Large touchscreens are handy when quickly googling how to fix something.

I use my Xoom as a media device when I'm in bed, so watching movies, anime as well as browsing the internet.

The other use for the Xoom is as an educational device, using it to display textbook and my typed up work while I'm at school.
