I picked one up on Tuesday. Found it on craigslist for $225. My only complaint is that the screen isn't nearly as clear/sharp as my wife's XYBoard. The darks aren't completely dark at angles. Besides that its a great tab especially at the cost I got it at.

Man, that sucks! I don't know if this helps, but Daily Steals has the 3G unlocked version at $300 Daily Steals -sorry, can't post URL under 10 post

I think that runs honeycomb...and I don't know if ICS has been announced for it. But as branshaw09 and others have said Craigslist seems to be a good place to get one for a good price and be able to physically check it out first. Good luck.

Actually, its funny how things work out. I ended up finding one this evening for $100 less than the one I bought from Walmart.

From Craigslist? Just out of curiosity...how much are folks getting their Xooms for?

I own a Xoom. I have two problems with it. I would prefer a 7 or 8 inch model instead. And the Xoom is very hard to hold comfortably. The edge is too small and it is just always awkward. I look forward to the Google Experience Device from Asus coming out in the near future.

the one i bought from walmart, i paid ~$430 for only because i felt like it was worth paying a bit more to have piece of mind and the ability to return it in case something was wrong. alot of ebay sellers i wanted to buy from didnt accept returns and i didnt want to be stuck with dealing with motorola if something was wrong with my device. since walmart pissed that out the window, i figured screw it, ill give ebay a shot. actually found one last night from 1saleaday on ebay for $320 shipped.

Funny to see this thread still going, i bought an asus transformer prime instead and i kept it for 6 days then sent it back!! the battery life was absolutely terrible i managed 5hrs use on about 5 different types of test on the main battery with just the screen, which was just not enough, so i sent it back. I am waiting for my xoom to arrive tomorrow
