I have one question, how is the browser? Smooth like ipad and iphone 4 smooth? or sluggish and jittery.
Got my Xoom

There is an excellent review on most everything you can possibly care about on this here:

Of course this is minus Flash which should come in the next few weeks.
Does Skyfire work? It would be nice because then we can get some Flash content.
I almost have to agree with Jobs here... I really wish flash would just go away. We are always waiting for Adobe... wait and wait some more. Very tiring.
If this thing with a 3250mAh battery can run about 10 hours, I am extremely intrigued about some posters saying the Galaxy Tab 10.1 will have something in the 6500mAh range.... How is that possible for this sized device? I mean they really did pack a huge battery in the Galaxy Tab 7 but man... 6500mAh+ would be just nuts. 20hrs+ of potential use sounds like its impossible...
hi,
i sent you a PM, can you read and reply to it? thanks in advance..
How is the screen brightness and glare? (especially in normal use's aka playing videos in a moving vehicle)
HTML5 is coming along and more of the popular sites are converting. Flash should have been a optional feature on the iPad whether or not Jobs said it kills the battery. However, until HTML5 is mainstream, FLASH is required for a full internet experience, battery drain or not.
Try throwing in the flash on ipad or iphone and see if the browser still smooth. Even though you can't. But I doubt it's still fast and smooth.

+1 jobs really should have put flash on the browser. Whether or not it's up to the user to use it or disable it. That's just the way steve manage his devices and his customers like freaking children.

i think the main point everyone's forgetting here is that mAh is a TERRIBLE unit for measuring energy. You have to multiply it by the supply voltage to compare different units.
For example, if the Xoom has a 3250mAh 7.2V battery and the GT101 has a 6500mAh 3.7V one, they'll both contain the exact same amount of electrical energy!
I think it's very odd that mAh even exists. Just using Joules instead would tell you the exact amount of energy that the battery will provide. And, it could be compared to any other battery with any other voltage.

How do emulators run on it? psx4droid run perfect? *needs to see Super Mario RPG on a 10.1" tablet* lol
I downloaded this to my NC Nook yesterday, and it really isn't much different than the non-tablet version for Android. I was hoping for something similar to the very sharp iPad version, it's not even close.
For the OP, what other tablet-specific apps are you seeing in the Market?
Just picked up my Xoom at a corporate store. Quick in and out, no activation required, paid full price and bought the keyboard and dock.
Android market is also working now, I've downloaded all the apps I use daily on my phone from the market to my tablet already.

Anyone can supply me with the init.*.rc and build.prop files seperated from any system image upload (then its not copyrighted, but just textfiles, so you know)
