One of the most anticipated tablets of 2011 was the Motorola XOOM, the first venture by Motorola into the Android tablet market. Its successor for 2012 is the Motorola Xyboard.
Running the tablet-centric Android 3.0 OS, aka Honeycomb, the XOOM is powered by a dual core 1GHz Tegra 2 processor from nVidia. The two 1GHz cores, along with the GPU, provide enough processing power to decode 1080p HD video and supports output to monitors and TVs via HDMI.
The XOOM also has a 10.1-inch multitouch display with a 1280x800 resolution.
Other features include 1GB of RAM, EV-DO Rev. A support, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, a microSDHC memory card slot, 5MP rear and 2MP front-facing cameras, GPS, and a microUSB data/charging port.
