Mrs. Swede likes to send me calendar entries from her Crackberry to my e-mail. After trying six apps to import .ics files, I finally found one that actually works well.
Invitation Processor Free.
I like it so much, I'll probably spend the dollar to buy the Pro version.
But before I do, anyone with any other recommendations? (Must be compatible with Ice Cream Sandwich.)

RepublicWireless - Unlimited Everything, $19/month + Tax, No Contract
Not an app, but an entire phone company: RepublicWireless.com
They sell Android phone which have been modified to automatically use wifi as much as possible and cellular signals as little as possible, for phone, text (some issues) and data. You pay for your phone ($249 now, I believe) upfront, then pay ~$22 / month with no contract, no early termination fee. You get unlimited minutes, unlimited texts, unlimited data.
When it's using the cellular network, the phone is on Sprint. So, it's not a GSM phone and has no SIM that can be swapped out. If you're international the cellular system won't work, but if you can grab a wi-fi signal you've got a working phone.
I've been a customer since ~December and have been pleased with the service and even more pleased with the price.

App to Utilize One Paid Wi-Fi Source for Several Wi-Fi Devices?
Is there an app that lets one wi-fi device serve as a hotspot for all your wi-fi devices?
Some hotels charge a substantial daily fee for wi-fi, and limit you to one device.
I would like to use an Android tablet to distribute that wi-fi signal to 2 or 3 other computing devices in the room.

You need to get a mini router. There is another thread in this forum with all kinds of reviews.

android wifi to wifi
