I started downloading the Android 4.1.2 OTA update for the Wifi Xoom last night. Since then, its been stuck on the hardware boot screen (showing the Moto logo). I've tried the hardware reset (hold power and volume up buttons simultaneously) several times, but I can't get past the hardware boot screen and the screen wont shut off.

I'm running stock Android, no root or custom ROM. Any idea what I should do next?

If nothing more works, unlock bootloader, root and install a custom ROM... But first perform a backup using adb while on recovery (it can be the stock one)
