I love it also, but as someone who has owned a Nexus 10 for almost two years, I really don't think I can justify another Android tablet. From an app perspective, unlike the android phone experience, you feel second class all the time. From Facebook to Twitter, the Android tablet version of those apps are just terrible.

Amazon apparently has some war with google over its Fire line and making Fire more attractive than Google products, so we'll never get Prime Video on the Android tablet. Little things like the in-flight video on Southwest doesn't work with android (although they give you hilariously outdated instructions to use an android device with flash installed). I have a little remote control Romo robot I use to videochat with my infant son when I'm at work, and they gave up on their android app. Every startup launches an iOS app that's solid and good looking with a "coming soon" Android app that either never gets here or is a goddamn mess.

That's on top of the other tomfoolery with the N10 like the random battery drains and random reboots, although this might just be old age. I just don't feel the Android tablet experience is there yet and considering Apple's dominance in this area, it may never be there. Developers just aren't making it a priority and often we just get a stretched out phone app, if we get anything. Its shameful how little this has changed in the past couple years.

You can now but it requires some user intervention.

Amazon's video app can't be installed via the Play store for whatever reason but, if you select a video in the main Amazon app, it asks you to sideload the video app by enabling non-store apps for a bit. Install it an everything works as expected.

Yep, it works great.

Amazon has their own Android app store that they're pushing very aggressively. When you selected the video in the Amazon app, it actually brought you to the Amazon app store to download the video app. You have to enable side-loading because the Amazon app store isn't the Play store: it's not allowed to install stuff.

This is why it was a good idea to launch the N7 first - N7 is "close-enough" to phone-size that phone-scaled apps appearing aren't jarringly awful, as long as they support landscape rotation.

I think you'll find once demand progresses there'll be homebrew applications to spoof access for Prime Video.
