I got my Motorola Xoom two days ago. I agree, it's too thick to read a Kindle book on it.

I wanted to see an Android device and selected the Motorola, because it is not customized by the manufacturer and of course the review here influenced me as well.

Overall it is a good device and I think, I still have to figure out a lot in this new Android world. The first impressions are that the app on the IPad are sexier.

I bought the device from an auction site. It's an US import from Verizon. I also prefer English as the interface language. Is it really true that a Xoom bought in German speaking countries cannot be switched to English?

Thanks,
Edy
