Motorola XOOM Ad
We'll probably see this ad on the Superbowl. It's sure to be a popular device, but can it challenge iPad2? Maybe 2011 is my year for a tablet. Will want to compare XOOM and iPad2 before purchasing.
IN reality, you will want to compare it to the iPad 3 - rumored to be coming out very shortly after the iPad 2 - see http://www.padgadget.com/2011/02/16/iphone-5-and-ipad-3-to-feature-new-a5-processor-ipad-2-will-come-with-older-a4/ for reasons and ancedotal evidence
Thanks for the link, Bruce. Comparing a real product with a future product, then deciding to wait has always been my great technology upgrade dilemma. There's always something a bit better over the horizon. Buy now or wait, the perennial dilemma.
