Motorola XOOM : Official Complete Specifications

I highly doubt it will ever see official release in the Philippines (I'd love to be proven wrong though -- at least in this case). But since I have a hunch that it will end being one of those 'landmark' gadgets, I'm featuring it on TP nonetheless.

The Honeycomb user experience offers an improvement on favorite Android features like widgets, multi-tasking, notifications, browsing, customization and likewise delivers the latest Google Mobile innovations. Boasting a dual core chip with individual cores running at 1 GHz and 10.1-inch widescreen HD display, Motorola XOOM gives a new type of mobile computing experience on a stylishly thin slate that's 4G LTE upgradeable.
