It is also on Amazon Apps (for Kindle devices), and the Firefox marketplace. I am guessing that if any apps can be loaded from Google Play onto the XO Tablet, Sugarizer will be too. <div><br></div><div>I may have loaded something when I was playing with the tablet in the summer of 2013, but I'm not sure. Someone will need to try to find out. The device is supposed to be a regular Android tablet when it isn't on the "Dream" screen. </div><div><br></div><div>If someone else has one, maybe they can test it out and let us all know what the possibilities are for adding other Android apps.</div><div><br></div><div>Caryl<br><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Fri, 28 Nov 2014 20:55:01 -0800<br>Subject: Re: [UKids] Discounted XO Tablets at Amazon<br>From: georgejhunt@gmail.com<br>To: cbigenho@hotmail.com<br>CC: support-gang@lists.laptop.org; iaep@lists.sugarlabs.org; unleashkids@googlegroups.com; socal-ossie@googlegroups.com<br><br><div dir="ltr">I'd be careful about promising that anything can be loaded on the "android side". <div><br></div><div>My experience playing with this device is that the loader is signed, and locked.

It is definitely worth that much. It is basically a 7" Vivitar tablet with a green "skin" to make it an "XO." I don't think much about the "educational software" that is on it, but my almost-4-year-old granddaughter finds plenty of things to keep her amused. Here's a link to the listing…. it is only offered at that price through Dec. 1.</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NC081UQ/ref=gb1h_tit_c-3_5322_4fd53dd4?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_s=center-3&pf_rd_r=0B65CRHMBE9TFAHANZN4&pf_rd_i=384082011&pf_rd_p=1989425322" target="_blank">http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NC081UQ/ref=gb1h_tit_c-3_5322_4fd53dd4?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_s=center-3&pf_rd_r=0B65CRHMBE9TFAHANZN4&pf_rd_i=384082011&pf_rd_p=1989425322</a></div><div><br></div><div>Sugar is not on the tablet, however you should be able to run OLPC France's Sugarizer version on the Android "side" of the tablet.
