James,
Sorry about delay in replying, I've only just seen this post.
I have had the Asus for a couple of weeks and like it very much. Everything runs well on it . I understand that it does not have access to as many apps as an Ipad but I want mine principally for Logos.
So fas as Logos android is concerned it is early days and it can be a little frustrating at times when I can't do the things I want, but still its a work in progress.
If I am using it at home, sitting in the garden say, I can use the "cloud" app and get access to my PC, controlling it from the Asus and seeing the desktop with all the facilities of the windows version available. That means I can sit comfortably somewhere within range and just "meditate" but with access to things if a thought arises.
When out of range and out of wifi access to internet I use And Bible to have access to strong's linkage and TSK, all free! I also use MySword for Android which has a few more free resources while waiting for Logos to catch up.
Hope this helps,
David
Just to add to what David said...I download locally just a few resources (bibles, commentaries, lexicons) for when there is no wifi in range...very handy

I can see the app in the market, but my device does not recognize it as an update. All I get is an option to open, no update. Currently running beta 6. This is on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1.
Thanks!
Try visiting http://www.logos.com/mobile/android on your Tablet. Select the Download link there and see if you get different results.
Further updates should behave as normal for apps downloaded from the Marketplace.
Thanks,
Hunter,
Followed your directions using the download site. If I tried to open the download link using the marketplace app, I got the same result. However, by using a browser to access the market, I was able to install beta 7. Did end up with an extra icon (easy enough to get rid of). Looks like I am all set up with beta 7 now.
Thanks so much for your assistance!
I have Beta7 on my ColorNook, but am now unable to download books--the ones I already had are still there. When I try a new one (like the KJV), it tries but then says "Download Failed". I tried moving the Logos app "to the SD Card", but that didn't fix this issue. Not sure how to overcome it. However, I also can't remember where I put my ColorNook after testing this Friday night...

Found it...and for whatever reason, it has suddenly begun to download resources...odd.
I very much enjoy my Logos' Scholar's 4 Library and have been a long time user of your Bible study software. I look forward to using the Android Beta version on my Motorola Atrix phone. Among the future features list I would most like to see quickly are word and multiple word look ups (across a limited verse range). I also need a Strong's cross-reference number look up capability. I most often use the Authorized King James Version for my daily study. As a long range feature on my Android, I would love to be able to search the Aprocrypha and look up the Greek words behind the English language translation. I wish Logos much success with future Android products!
Awesome.....keep up the good work!!! No more side loading.
