@desporty93 Yes they have improved the speed. @Classy2sassy yes, all xooms will eventually get the update. @jknvv13 I turned it on in the Dev settings. I kinda like the lillte light effect lettting you know where you are touching the screen.

Thanks for making this video. I am contemplating on buying a Xoom (1st Gen) mainly because of price point. I don't mind not getting the fastest CPU since there doesn't seem to be any performance issues with the HW even running on ICS. Would you recommend getting the Xoom despite the fact that's it's already a year old and faster tablets have started entering the market?

@inyaki2007 Yes, the Xoom is an excellent tablet and considering the recent price drops I thinks it's a no brainer.

is there face unlock?

[JCCorporationMedia]

@kayjay178 No, not on this build. @NileMxpx666 No, I flashed this myself but the OTA update started rolling out yesterday. @kake123456789 No, if you are coming from the stock 3.2.1 then all your data will be safe.

@NileMxpx666 I flashed a pre release build. You can find more information at xda-developers @shelt3r yes, this is the US WiFi only model

@letaheyoh By here on the milestone update i talk about argentina

[juanjito20194]

@letaheyoh xoom even in latin-america countries is on evaluation and planning. Depending on the carrier i would say it might get the update, through wifi also. I've got a milestone 2 and the gingerbread update was first pushed to europe, in a hurry I flashed it, but then they brought it here a month later. If it's a wifi model only from europe you might be getting the update in q2 of this year, its quite certain, there are no hardware issues and wifi only on the us got it really fast

is it worth getting a xoom even though i have a motorola droid razr maxx and im waiting for ics which wont be around till april?

[kennedy904]

flash aint working right on my xoom every since i started the update 3week ago

[letaheyoh]

I bought my xoom in UK last month, a week ago I came back to my country (Uruguay) and I'm not sure if my tablet will ever get the update. What do you think? Thank you :)
