When I bought my xoom I had every intention of returning it if I wasn't happy. Well let me tell you my expectations have been exceeded in every way. Its quick at everything it does. Gmail, maps, navigation, browser are all unbelievably fast and highly functional. Build quality is phenomenal. Stereo speakers are loud and clear. Keyboard is fantastic. My only real complaint is lack of Adobe Flash, but that will come. I'm not a big fan of Steve Jobs, but man was he ever right about the tablet form factor. I never knew I needed a tablet but now I could never live without it. If you get a Xoom I can promise you will not be disappointed.
