I just ordered myself a new Android tablet. Mostly so that I can read PDFs easily. I am interested in any apps that might be useful to gamers. Anyone have any suggestions?

You can find a lot of dice rolers in the android market.
A nice app is "Spellbook D&D 3.5". Lets you look up spells and make lists, with space for personal notes. You can download it for free, making one spell list. For additional spell lists (for multiple characters, or multiclass casters if you want a separate list for each) you need to pay some cach. Lacks an option to add new spells, though, so you are stuck with core only. I'm still searching for something better.

For Pathfinder there is a Pathfinder Spellbook, it's quite nice, and! works without internet connection...

Just curious: which tablet did you order? (Thinking about getting one after my apprenticeship)

I ordered a Viewsonic gTablet. I think I will get the Pathfinder app. I will also be needing a good app for reading PDFs.

Adobe. It's brilliant. Even on my Wildfire I could read PDFs, sadly this little thing didn't have enough power for the pathfinder core handbook. At least on the iPad it's working properly.

I generally dislike Adobe's PDF readers (they feel very bloaty [Edit; I don't know about their 'droid reader, though, since I went straight for foxit]), so I'll mention Foxit's PDF Reader for Android instead. Linky (http://www.foxitsoftware.com/products/mobilereader/android/)
