Maybe this was different in the UK because the Xoom came out later, but when it was offered in the US, only one model was offered - the 32G 3G, for $700. There was no option to buy a 32GB wifi model, nor for a 16GB model in any variety. The wifi only model didn't come out until a month or so later.

To recap, when the Xoom came out in the US, it didn't support flash (although it was promised for later), it didn't support an SD slot (although that was promised for later), and there was only one model you could buy - the 32GB 3G model.
