The iPad's first rival

Yeah that's right, the iPad finally has a competing tablet on its level. For now the only thing the Xoom by Motorola doesn't match up to the iPad is on price. Powered by the new and improved Android system, Honeycomb, allows users to spin the machine and have full touch-screen access as it rotates. Showcasing a larger screen, beefier electronics, and this sleek, new operating system by Google (Honeycomb).



Lets face it, we live in a time of multi-tasking. My generation and those younger need to be doing something at all times. We don't have the greatest attention span, so the Xoom has developed multi-tasking capabilities so while you are waiting for you game to load, you can hop on youtube and search for videos without interrupting the setup of the game. The iPad is still known for having a better resolution screen and more applications. The Xoom is a product to keep an eye on especially with the timing of the new iPad release, which is expected in the coming week. All very interesting news, Apple's share price has fallen over 5.5% the past 5 trading days during as the stock market slides a bit...I will keep an eye on this.
