    Why does the Xoom Price seem so bad?

    You know, when talking about the Xoom, I'd have to say releasing only one version is something I'd expect Steve to do. I can see Steve saying, this is the one tablet there is, and you have no other choice. Isn't android about choices? Why would motorola come out with only one version to start...

    Motorola drops Xoom order, No more Xooms after June.

    The only thing I have to say, is if they are setting up for a new Xoom 2, I'm not going to be interested to hear anything about it. The reason, because of the horrible way Motorola handled all the speculation about the Xoom 1. I was so excited after CES, then it was like a roller coaster on...

    WiFi only xoom releasing March 27th. $599

    16G because it'd be cheaper and I'm just going to through in my own memory. I'm cheap. I don't think they'll ever come out with a 16G, so its one of the things i'll have to settle on is the 64G. I really hope the wifi version comes out this month. I'm hoping to get one for Father's Day /...

    WiFi only xoom releasing March 27th. $599

    You know. I'm an android fan, I won't ever buy an IOS device, but releasing an unfinished device, just 1 model. Seriously. I'll buy a Xoom when they make a version for me, but the 1 version they have out now isn't for me. Don't write about me being a hater. This is a forum and I'm...

    Farewell Xoom

    I keep complaining here and there about the Xoom, but the reality is I'm worried the IPAD 2 will bury the Xoom and other Android Tablets. I'd love to have one, especially one like the xoom. I'd almost never purchase an IOS device again because I'm just not a fan of IOS. But I look at the IPAD...

    Xoom--will Ipad 2 announcement have an effect?

    The other thing I wonder about is apps made for the xoom. I know apple apps will work with the IPAD. But will developers make stuff for honeycomb specifically? If I wanted to make some money and I was a developer I know I'd make stuff for the IPAD. Sure the freedom of android is nice, but...

    Farewell Xoom

    This video, "ways android tablets could beat the ipad" kind of sums up my sentiments on the matter. Videos - Free video downloads and streaming video - CNET TV

    Farewell Xoom

    Honestly at this point without a price drop the Xoom has been a PR mistake from almost the beginning. It wins CES 11, then prices fly around between $600 to $1200. Then they finally release only a 3G version. It doesn't support flash, the sd card slot needs to be upgraded. It may eventually...

    Xoom--will Ipad 2 announcement have an effect?

    Cool to hear, now I'm interested. This is the first time I've heard of the barometer aside from hearing that it has one before launch. I'm kind of a weather nerd and now I'm actually much more interested in the xoom and the barometer aside from my last post. Thanks for the info!

    Xoom--will Ipad 2 announcement have an effect?

    The spec sheet is cool to look at and all, but having something decked out in the best specs isn't even necessarily a sell. I'm not looking to have a 1TB tablet because its just that, a tablet. Its not going to be my computer, but a side screen I use for college and fun browsing. 32G is more...

    Xoom--will Ipad 2 announcement have an effect?

    Well now that the IPad 2 updated specs and same pricing has been released I'm not buying a Xoom till there is a significant price drop. I love android so much, but this is apple's second time making the same tablet. They made it pretty much as good as its going to get. Sure they could add a...

    A good editorial/rant on Motorola and the Xoom

    Motorola is making a mistake, its not going to get the hype and product demand like it should. Hopefully the Xoom makes it through this fiasco. I'm a die hard Android fan, early adopter, I really really dislike apple, nearly hate them. But I'm not paying more for an Android device then an...

    $799 for the Xoom? Ouch!

    $800, eh, its funny how much $100 difference makes. I most likely would have gotten it at $700, but now I'll wait till the wifi version comes out, and till the IPAD2 comes out and it has another price drop, then I'll pick up the Xoom. You know Motorola, I didn't want to have to play the...

    Google event and Xoom

    Thanks for the hint about the slashgear demo videos. After watching that google event in full, I'm sold on the way ahead of google. The new market place is amazing. I'm working in a place where I can't bring my phone, so I have 2 apps waiting for me installed on my phone when I get back to...
