“After the slick Motorola Xoom tablet computer has been
considered as the best device at the Consumer Electronics Show
(CES) in Las Vegas, it seems like the hype has never ceased. Being
the first gadget to run the very latest Android version from Google
– Android 3.0 Honeycomb, it is regarded by many as a potential
threat to Apple’s domination on the tablet computer market. A month
after the CES, at Mobile World Congress, the Xoom has impressed
many critics once again. But does it have what it takes to compete
and beat the soon-to-be-released iPad 2?

“The Motorola Xoom features a 10.1-inch. touch screen
(1280×800 resolution), capable of playing high-definition
content. It utilizes the innovative and unbreakable Gorilla Glass
display. The Xoom is powered by a dual core NVIDIA Tegra 2 (1 GHZ)
processor, and it is equipped with 1GB of RAM and 32 GB of internal
storage.”
