Possibly. The OP's still buying a Xoom though. After taking a Xoom for a spin at Verizon (while waiting for them to get our account straightened out) I can't imagine anyone opting for one in lieu of the original iPad, let alone an iPad2, but each to their own!I dont think so, i think it was a genuine question/feeling he had and he wasnted to ask the experts from Ipad and only place where so many ipad expert are available is this one.+1 :ipad-case:I think the original poster is trolling - a mod should close this post imo.
I feel that this thread must have given him the strong message on why ipad2 is better than xoom and he has not cancelled his order,
And thats the success for this forum
my opinion (can be completely different with yours)
Exactly. I had read a lot about the Xoom and had an open mind...if someone was going to give the iPad a run for its money, I wanted to get a feel for it...so I spent a good deal of time with it. My wife has a Droid so I was somewhat familiar with the Android OS. I opened apps on the Xoom, swiped this way and that, watched a couple of videos, listened to some music and even played Angry Birds. Aside from the form factor being bigger and heavier I just found it clunky and kludgy to use. It's a nice try but it's years behind the iPad IMHO.I walked into my nearest Verizon store a few days ago to check out the xoom in person.
This may come off sounding biased, being that I am an iPad 1 and iPad 2 owner, but after picking up and using a xoom for a few minutes, there is no way that I would purchase a xoom over an iPad.
There is no comparison in the quality of design, interface, user experience, and support. Though I am fortunate to have purchased an iPad 2 sooner than many, I'd have been glad to wait the 3 to 5 weeks for an online order to have arrived.
