If you don't mind paying $20 to $30 for the 3G then actually is was priced quite competitive. But the mindset of most people is being locked into a contract as opposed to month to month.

sorry if I wasn't clear. Personally if someone does want to be connected, no matter what and where, then even the 1G $20 a month isn't bad at all. Just do any major downloading or streaming when connected to your wi fi.

but it's the whole signing your name on the dotted line for 2 years just pyschologically scares people.

Trust Me Kenny C If I didn't owe taxes this year I would have been one those who bought the 1G 2 year contract. I love the Xoom. But my remarks to do stand about paying $800 for a tablet, that is just plain crazy.

I don't disagree. Just pointing out the details. I agree about paying full price for Wi-fi, but that was lowered by $200 shortly after release.

xoom had the head start but wasted it. the eee pad transformer it going to (or already has) taken all the thunder for honeycomb tablets. i like the xoom and wanted to do a side by side with the transformer but i had bad luck on launch day. i've got the transformer on pre order and 13 days left on my xoom. not quite 100% on what i'll keep. the geek in me wants to keep both.

samsung may have a chance, but it's gotta come as cheap or close to what the transformer is.

I'm more than happy with my Xoom.
