    I should've return my xoom earlier...

    Had the Xoom for a couple of weeks and really enjoyed it. My only gripe was the fact that none of the movies I had in MP4 format could be played without what I considered major Video Judders. Decided that for the time being an I Pad better suited my needs since the primary use I have for a...

    A good all around Media Player.

    Does Mobo Player fix the Judder - jerky playback - that a lot of people, myself included have had with the Xoom when playing Mp4 files? I ran through Power Amp, Rock Player and a handfull of others and couldnt find one that would play fluid, not jerky video... Just curious.

    New battery problem

    Im in Dallas and I have had the same problem since Tuesday. Charge the phone overnight and then its down to 15% in 4.5 hours without any use. My phone has also been warm to hot to the touch when I go to use it after being idle for that period. Went to the Verizon store yesterday and watchted...

    TB gone crazy

    the last 3 days my Thunderbolt has been having some issues. I take the phone off the charger after charging all night and holster it. Take it out several hours later (2-3), phone is warm or hot to the touch and upwards of 80% of the battery is drained. I went to check the functions using the...

    Noteburner settings for Xoom

    Well I hadnt started ripping movies from DVDs yet. Was trying to manage my I Tunes files first. Anyway Thanks for all the input. The Xoom is now back in the hands of Best Buy waiting for a new home. Hoping a few months under Honeycombs belt can show me that its grown to where I can jump back in.

    Thunderbolt Battery Complaints + Tips/Tricks

Bought my phone on the 18th and today I didnt even touch it other than to take it off the charger at 10AM, by 5PM I was...

    Noteburner settings for Xoom

    well Im pretty sure the Xoom is going to be homeless in a few days. Its very apparent to me that a causal user like myself is not the target audience for this device, not to mention its been out how many weeks and its still not completelyl activated. Maybe in 6 months I can look back at...

    sync with outlook contacts on pc?

    Outlook makes it easy to keep your contacts from work when you change jobs. I may just be old and Paranoid also but I prefer to have all my information on my computer and not out on the web where any tom dick or harry hacker could get to it. yeah yeah I know if they want it they could get it...

    Noteburner settings for Xoom

    my 1000 Bitrate run finished over night. As with the 2000 bitrate run it performes perfectly on my PC, but Rock Player Lite is super choppy and the video freezes for 15 seconds at a time. Any Suggestions as the problem seems to be on the Xoom end. I cant see why a movie that playes flawlessly...

    sync with outlook contacts on pc?

    I just wish HTC sync would recognize my Xoom. It does an adaqauate job for my Thunderbolt. In my opinion Google is kind of shooting itself in the foot trying to force you to use GMail and their own services as the only really easy option. They should have their own universal sync program, let...

    Noteburner settings for Xoom

    well That didnt work out so well. Video looks acceptable, but it gets stuck and is really choppy. Im going to try with a Video Bit rate of 1000 next, even though I think I need to increase it to 3000. Took about 10 Hours for the movie to process. File size wasnt bad with my settings 2.2Gb...

    Noteburner settings for Xoom

    I am currently experimenting with Noteburner to find the optimal settings for my Xoom. I am getting some huge files with my earlier tests. These settings are running now. I think my biggest question is about the Video bitrate. When I ran the conversion first I set it to stay as the native...

    Google Account Sync Contacts

    Well all is wonderful with my Thunderbolt. The problem now is that I cant get Active Sync to recognize my Xoom. In the long run the only thing I wont be able to port over will be my Outlook contacts because I can use google sync to get my Outlook calener. Does anyone know what I might be...
