Do you pay for the apps or is it a one time thing. I wanna invest in one but I just do know how they work

The applications themselves are free but in many cases (e.g. NetFlix) you have to pay for the service they connect to. There are some services (e.g. NASA videos) that you can view for free using applications on this device but most are subscription based or pay per view. Services you pay for mostly, possibly universally - I haven't checked them all - require you set up an account with them so they can collect payment from you when you use their service.

Honestly, the Netgear doesn't have a whole lot of apps to choose from, but they are part of the purchase price (except for pay services like HuluPlus and Netflix). We also have a Roku and they add new apps all the time--many are free but some are for pay services. I wouldn't purchase the Netgear again for this reason.

No, before you buy the app for this isn't free. It's a couple of bucks. It's easy to use. The watch needs nothing else. I get busy and forget it's even on my wrist. Just make sure the battery gets changed because it gets glitchy when the battery is low.

Do you have any particular questions we could answer for you? I personally love mine, but am not sure what you might be questioning regarding your use v. investment.

there is an initial turn on fee, then a monthly pay as you go fee. the monthly rates vary depending on the frequency of data down load- 1 sec. up to 5 mins. Find their web site for accurate rate info. they are also available by phone for questions , even prior to purchase. that tel. # is also on the website-great customer service and easy to use the product and program ( I am not real tech savvy).

I do not pay for any subscription, however, you can link it to the Cloud storage for free trial period and then pay for that after the trial period. I do not use the Cloud.

The apps do cost extra, but they are not too expensive. I think they usually run from $5.99 to 20.99. Many of the apps are downloadable by PC/Mac or even WiFi if you have the 2S with built in Wi-Fi. Both the Amazon Store and the Vtech Store are supported.

Gotta pay the activation fee. If you shut if off and later decide to turn it back on, you'll pay the activation fee again. Trust me....it's well worth it. This is an incredible little device. Answered many questions for me.

Thanks! Can you also tell me...b/c I"ve noticed on the leapster site it does NOT give you the info beforehand...How much do apps cost? Basically will buying the card get me more than 1 download?

Yes! I bought the download cardrd for $13 then received a 30% of website discount and used a promo code for another $5. I ended getting 66% off the $35 worth of apps.

It was offered to me when I purchased my son's tablet. You can also go to their website squaretrade.com and purchase a plan from them.

You definitely can. The app is a little bit clunky, but once you figure it out, it's great.

Out of the box it has 4 apps, a drawing/art app, a camera/video function app, a game where you design and take care of a pet and a FREE download app (you can pick a freebie out of maybe 4 or 5 options). After that, everything else is paid for. I was lucky enough to purchase a $99 bundle about 2 months ago that included a free Mr. Pencil game, but that doesn't normally come with the unit.

The "access fee" is for programing/ sending you the signal. You only save by having the piece of mind in not entering into a contract for a year or two. Buying more than one and activating on you account will bring on an additional fee to your monthly billing as I understand.

Those apps are loaded onto Roku but you have to have an account to access them. Or you can sign up directly from the roku

The card reader works great with cell phones and iPads. You must have a merchant service account, something you set up that allows you to accept credit cards. The funds go to the merchant service account and then they charge a fee for each swipe and the money is put into your bank accant.

it is a trial version. you need to pay if you want to continue using after trial period.

Not unless you purchase a bundle. It usually comes with a card of $5 or $10 (I can't remember which) worth to buy an app from the online store. However, you can't purchase any of the full games with that amount. You can purchase a mini game or a story. Hope this helps.
