Can't agree more. Xoom 2 lags, freezes, reboots and has still an ugly honeycomb....

Something else interesting...even though they unveiled the Nexus 7 tablet at I/O, I don't really think it's a true successor to the Xoom. It's a 7" tablet that runs in portrait orientation by default, and the stock ROM runs in phone mode, not tablet mode.

Don't be surprised if early next year we see a real, honest Google Experience successor to the Xoom with a 10.1-inch screen and the OS running in landscape tablet mode. Until that happens, I'd expect to see future Android versions on the Xoom as well as the Nexus 7.

Utterly ridiculous that the original Xoom will now likely see Jelly Bean before the Xoom 2 even gets ICS.

Motorola will be lucky to get another dime from me ever again, and I used to have a lot of goodwill for the company.

I'll also only be purchasing Google Experience devices in the future.

The original Xoom is a Google Experience device (in the US anyway). The Xoom 2 is not. That's why the Xoom is getting the update and the Xoom 2 probably won't. It's no more or less complicated than that.

The international Xoom models (which are not GEDs) probably won't see an update to Jellybean either.

Why? Just like with ICS, there will be an unofficial (think EOS etc), 3G+WiFi build not long after.

I wish I had a WiFi xoom as well, but hey, I got this Verizon one for $20 so I'm not gonna complain! It's effectively a WiFi xoom since I don't have service, but I still have to wait that extra Verizon time.

I've always wondered why Google/Motorola/Verizon never pushed the Google Android Experience in their ads. It probably would've helped sales.

I doubt that. Honestly, maybe 1% of users (us) actually care about that or even know what that means.
