Best Buy is selling the Motorola Xoom Android 3.0 tablet computer for $799
on Feb. 24, according to an ad shot scored by Engadget.
The report comes two weeks after Android Central reported the minimum price for the Xoom, which Motorola
hopes will be the first Android tablet to successfully challenge Apple’s iPad,
from Verizon Wireless would be $799 sans contract. See the Xoom portal on
Motorola here.
Powered by the Nvidia Tegra 2 dual-core processor and sporting a 10.1-inch
screen, the Xoom has the freshest Android build, which is optimized for
tablets.
The tablet supports several 3D capabilities, including the Google Maps 5.0
application for Android, where buildings rise as users tilt the Xoom.
Google showed off these capabilities during Verizon’s keynote at the 2011 Consumer
Electronics Show Jan. 6 to some applause.
