hello xoom community. imma big android lover. ive had a sgs fascinate which bricked and now i have a htc desire. the android 3.0 has been calling my name and im extremely bad when i want something. i need to have it. as of this second, i have the money 4 the wifi version. my question is, is it worth 700 dollars canadian? ive never used a tablet b4 so its a new expierience 4 me all together. any advice would b awesom thx

edit: can the xoom run goldeneye on the n64oid? perfect dark? how does psx4droid run? basically, i know im going to get this if it can play these gaes at a good speed

I'd say wait for the eel pad transformer. better screen and working sd card slot. plus it's $100 cheaper for the 32 GB version. runs on tegra 2.

It runs N64 well, but if you need to hold a button down for a while (like A in Mario Kart) it stops working after 15-20 seconds. Very frustrating.

There's also the Acer Iconia releasing on the 24th....pretty much the same specs as the xoom but it will be $450 and has brushed aluminum......yum.......

Yep. $450 for 16gb WiFi. Gonna be thicker and heavier though.

I don't know how much weight my opinion carries since I don't have a Xoom(yet) either, but so far I have for the most part have heard good things. So good in fact that I am leaning towards getting one next month.
