Motorola's XOOM Tablet To Cost $799; Wi-Fi Requires 3G Activation?

Posted by Soulskill on from the screen-better-be-made-out-of-dilithium dept.

WrongSizeGlass writes "The price of Motorola's XOOM Tablet has been leaked in a Best Buy ad. The $799 Android 3-enabled tablet will be available starting Feb 24th. Though the price may seem a bit high, the most surprising detail is that activating the Xoom's Wi-Fi will require signing up for at least one month of Verizon's 3G service. Let's hope the fine print in the Best Buy ad turns out to be a typo."
