Anyone have a XOOM?

[GolfNut]

So, I may have miscounted, but it looks like 7 unique users have posted here that do NOT own a Xoom, and zero Xoom users. That in itself may tell me something.

I do not have a best buy or anything like that nearby, but we do have a Staples. My son came over yesterday and said he stopped by Staples and played with several tablets. He liked the Xoom best but didn't spend a lot of time with them. Said the internet experience was great with it.

I think today I'll swing by and see what they have. Costco still seems to be the best place to buy from though due to their 90day return policy. No real risk if I end up not liking the Xoom providing they actually stock it at our store that is.

Forrest, how about a Verizon store? Target? Walmart?
Not sure if all those carry them but Verizon does for sure.

If I had $600 to spend on a tablet instead of $250 I would be more likely to have a XOOM (or a Transformer) instead of getting a Galaxy Tab, if that helps. It's a purely a cost thing. I would live with the bigger size for the better specs for sure.

Because of the huge variety currently on the market tablet's are like cigars, wine, spirits, etc.; a personal preference that no one else can really tell you what you're going to like. The biggest thing right now is making sure you don't buy one that's going to disappear overnight, and you're pretty safe on that with the Xoom/GalaxyTab/iPad/Playbook.
