If it doesn't work, it means the file system layout is most likely different, so a quick re-adjustment or build.prop might be needed. Also don't forget about the third-party AppStores.

By the way, how much did the tablet cost you?
(I'm not aware of any specials on it at the moment)
Yeah, I guess the Chainfire route is the easiest one. I tried a Motorola Xoom build.prop but Play didn't recognize me as a new device so it still told me that stuff were incompatible.

Total was about $210, tablet was $165, and express shipping ~$22 which split in two is about $10. Customs about $35. However, with the dollar pretty low vs the Swedish Krona, it didn't "feel" that expensive. In retrospect, I would probably look for a used Samsung tab though, they're going for about $300 used and is probably a better deal overall.
