I am so sick of this. The Xoom cost $600 at launch for the WiFi model - every single time anyone quotes Xoom vs. iPad prices, they find the most expensive Xoom and compare it to the cheapest iPad. The Xoom was significantly cheaper than the iPad if you picked an expensive iPad and a cheap Xoom to compare.
- TruthElixirX 15y agoHow do they compare spec wise at different levels? I am not in the market for a tablet so I'm not even sure what the different iPad competitors are.
- mikeash 15y agoAccording to Wikipedia, the WiFi-only Xoom wasn't available at launch, and only showed up a month later. Presumably that's why.
- brador 15y agoIf I remember correctly I was scheduled to purchase one until they crippled the flash (randomly delayed I think it was) and the memory card issue (delayed?). Together with the lack of long-term corporate support it would have no doubt had made it a cancelled purchase for me. Shame really, it looked nice at the time.
