@jocampo, you are giving a lot of incorrect information.

The Xoom has a WI-FI only model. All of the Xoom products are priced exactly to match the iPad so the Xoom is NOT more expensive. The Xoom does not have a low end model, but Apple has reported that the best selling iPad was it's 32GB not the 16GB.

Xoom did not intro with a 32GB WI-FI only model, but it has one now. It's cost is $599 which is what the 32GB WI-FI iPad 2 costs.

You also keep on hammering Xoom for not having LTE and SD Card support, but these features don't exist on the iPad 2 as well.

I do agree that Moto should have had SD Card support from the beginning, but not LTE especially since most of the US does not have access to LTE.

Hey! the economy is still bad, people are not willing to sign contracts and be stuck with a wireless plan for 2 years just for the sake of having a tablet.

Having said that, my iPad2 is wifi only. If later I decide and buy the Xoom, will be the wifi model as well. Xoom and iPads are too big to be considered a portable device; I use them mostly at home so 3G or 4G is useless there. In case of travel, I can do tethering from my Android cellphone or Galaxy Tab.
