Running Android 3.0, the 10.1-inch tablet will be stocked with 32GB of on-board memory and come with all the bells and whistles of the 3G version (dual core 1Ghz processors, 1GB of RAM, etc.).

The Motorola Xoom is finally available to the masses tomorrow — although it looks like it'll have a short time in the spotlight before the iPad 2 competes for attention. In any case, the Xoom is not the only new Android-powered 10.1-inch tablet in town. Earlier this month, Samsung unveiled a larger version of its popular seven-inch Galaxy Tab, but the details of the upcoming release date as Read more
Yesterday was a big day for Motorola — the company officially launched its Android Honeycomb-running tablet to the masses! Going for a cool $800, this tablet is an Oscar-worthy competitor to the iPad with its crisp 10-inch screen, awesome cameras and dual-core processors. I didn't get one for myself (I'll admit it: I'm waiting to see what the iPad 2 is packing), but let's just say my eye has Read more
We got a good look at the Motorola Xoom at CES and got an even better idea of what it's capable of at the recent Android Honeycomb event at Google HQ (check out some video of the Xoom in action on our Facebook page). One thing that has remained a mystery? The price. Earlier today at this year's MWC, Motorola finally outed the price points: $799 3G version (unsubsidized at Verizon, and upgradable Read more
Next up in geeky Super Bowl commercials, the latest Motorola ad for its new Xoom tablet. The commercial parodies Apple's old 1984 spot, depicting a bunch of stark, expressionless drones tethered to their iOS devices while the Xoom user enjoys full color . . . and flowers. The full spot won't air until Sunday, but you can check out a short teaser of the upcoming ad after the break. Read more
We got our first look at the iPad during last year's Oscars, but this year it's Motorola that's pulling out all the stops to make sure the celebrity influences are well equipped with its product — some of this year's high-profile Academy Awards nominees and presenters will find a brand new Xoom tablet in their swag bags, made especially for the occasion and decked out in gold, along with a Read more

As you may have heard, Apple announced the iPad 2 during a press event in San Francisco yesterday. Reviews so far have been glowing, but Steve Jobs did not hold back on discussing why the company's competitors aren't succeeding in this space. Jobs declared that manufacturers are still designing tablets to work like PCs, when tablets aren't used like regular computers; Apple understands this, Read more
Being scholars of the empirical battle known as Star Wars, naturally our favorite commercial during last year's Super Bowl game was Volkswagen's now-classic Darth Vader commercial. The TV ad showed, through a geeky lens, that not just extreme sports or models are needed to sleekly highlight a product. Beyond the mini-Darth spot, last year's game had its share of geek-approved commercials. Were Read more
