Motorola’s Xoom has long been proclaimed as the first tablet capable of decimating Apple’s stronghold on the market, but since its release on Verizon in February, just how well has it performed at market? According to recent unofficial sales figures, consumers don’t seem to be showing much love for Motorola’s first foray into the tablet space.
It’s about time we did this, one of our gadget comparisons. This time we have the iPad 2, Motorola Xoom, BlackBerry PlayBook and the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and it’s an all-out brawl. We’ve got dual core proccessors, 4G networking, HDMI and Magnetic Blankets — It’s gonna get messy, so feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments!
A new commercial released for the XOOM shows a guy on the boardwalk, collar popped and everything. Suddenl, he’s drawn towards a Motorola XOOM floating inside lasers (yes lasers!) and once he grasps it, he is incased inside a rocket ship and proceeds to shoot into outer-space. Your setting the bar pretty high Verizon/Motorola…
While there weren’t any Olympic runners hurling objects at a mind-numbing speech done by Steve Jobs, Motorola was able to capture a little bit of the charm that made Apple’s “1984” Super Bowl ad such a hit it originall was.
Artsy? Yes. Message taken? Absolutely. Will people get it? Probably not.
According to a recent tip received by Engadget, Motorola’s hot-to-trot, Honeycomb touting bad boy will be coming soon, very soon indeed. The tip, procured from a Best Buy inventory system, states that Motorola’s Xoom will be launching come February 17th at a price of $699.99. — More after the break!
