The playbook 16G is not as good but it only £169.00 – amazing

Totally right. Motorola wouldn’t be able to trademark the Droid part anyways, so Droid Xoom seems about right.

I beleive this is going to be one of the best tablets around for the next 2 months. The fact that they allow flash to run + they have tabbed browing should make it a killer especially if the Ipad 2 doesnt allow flash off the bat. Flash is the one thing that can offset not having a super App store since you can play all those flash games without needing an App store.

I sincerely hope that they have the price under $500 or maybe verizon brings down the price to 200 with a 2 yr data agreement – this should give the tablet a fighting chance against the marketing machine that is the Ipad2

EXACTLY, dualsub. I have a smartphone for browsing. I don’t need to lug a 10-inch tablet around with me. That is simply foolish. Might as well have a neon sign over your head that says “ROB ME, PLEASE.” (Same goes for laptops, by the way.)

I just want a tablet as a type of “coffee-table book,” to consume media at home. And for more heavy duty stuff, I have my laptop.

Who the hell are these people who can shell out all this extra money to Verizon? My partner and I pay about $129 a month right now, for service with two phones: a basic slider phone with no data and my HTC Incredible, which has unlimited data. I’m not gonna add another 30 buck a month to that bill: NO FREAKING WAY.

Of course, if one wants to root one’s phone, fine. Personally, I’m not that interested in screwing with my smartphone to root it and be able to use it as a hot spot for free. I’m sure I’d end up bricking the frigging thing. It’s too expensive to replace if I ruin it, and void the warranty.

What? I can wifi tether using my Nexus One just fine since the 2.2 update. No need for Ad-hoc. The phone acts like a “real” wifi-hotspot, ready to be connected to.

Unless there is some crazy new innovative feature, I'll pass.

Just like my Droid 2, I am sure this thing is going to be locked down beyond belief, and I'm sick of it.My GTablet has pretty much the same hardware and no locked down bootloader.

The person that was able to come up with a handful of images of the Verizon branded version said it was LTE, so I think we're beyond just my denial.
