@godfavorsme11 On the Wifi only versions, there is no monthly fee since there's no cell radios. You just have to login to your Wifi network and you're good to go!
@flickz2000 If you like games that are better than a phones, but less than a psp's on a big display with a somewhat light feel, get the iPad2.
If you're serious about school, you like hardcore games, not a nerd per se, but you like technology, but want something funner than a laptop, (lighter and smaller than a netbook, and smaller and more heavy than an iPad2) then get a xoom.
@WotTehPhok wow..so convincing one.thanks. i am going for xoom.
And what about the available applications in Android Market for honeycomb?I heard there are merely 50 working applications.Do you think they are increasing?
@flickz2000 Yeah, I recommend waiting for more android tablets to come out. They released the xoom way too early (lack of apps). I think you should check out the samsung galaxy tab 8.9 inch and 10.1 inch. (nothing from LG though). But the xoom is still awesome without the apps (for games, I go play flash games on the browser, And I don't use a facebook app or a youtube app since the browser can play those).
@williamstart123456 This has 1 gig of ram, which is twice that of the iPad 2. It comes with 32gb built-in storage at the same price as the 32gb wifi iPad 2. It has a microSD card slot which can expand if up to 64gb and will end up being cheaper than the 64gb wifi iPad 2. The cameras on it are far superior and it has a dual LED flash, which the iPad 2 doesn't have. That's just a brief list of what's better on the Xoom compared with the iPad 2. You can decide for yourself :)
Looks like people are having trouble so far rooting their wifi xooms. Since rooting is not working on the wifi xooms, people are not load the overclock kernels.
@erichchan3 Yup, I essentially bricked my Wifi Xoom last night trying to root it. It unlocks just fine but the root boot.img is specific to the Verizon Xoom.
@williamstart123456 yeah but it don't know about you but 16gb can run out very fast. And the college is 32gb with a micro as slot for an additional 32gb.
@kcm117 I checked the availability of the Xoom on Staples' website and called those stores to see if they were selling it yet or not. You'll have it soon enough, don't worry!
@USADominiRican Yeah, it's a titanium gray/silver color vs. all black like the Verizon Xoom. It actually looks very nice but if you have a case on it, you won't really be able to notice the difference.
@321tobie The initial setup boot is very quick. However, when you restart the unit, it takes about 45 seconds, which is probably on par with the Verizon Xoom
Do you have to pay a month for these??? Or can you just type in your wifi password???????

That was a little biased, but it's true.
