Check out cam ranger, I am using it on a 7000. With I pard mini I think they do android too. It's great, love view, set all exposure modes and settings also allows my 7000 to,take an HDR with 9 shots to the 3 Nikon limits me too. I have been using it to shoot stars on these cold nights while I sit inside watching TV.

It sets up a local wifi network

Your Android tablet has to be capable of being a USB host. Several Samsung Galaxy devices support this, most other tablets don't. Google your tablet model + USB host to find out. Also see this post: http://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-83435-2.html#1411332

Do a Google search for "nook usb hot mode" and read any about your model. From what I see some Nooks are able to do host mode. If yours can you MAY be able to use helicon for remote control.

Typo above. Should search for "nook usb host mode"
