Why it makes sense for Xoom to be $800

Uh... I do believe that sort of behavior is illegal due to that being a pretty anti-competitive tactic. Either way, it is definitely unethical.

I jailbroke my Ipad and it definately helps the functionality but I will be giving it to my wife who loves it andf getting the XOOM when it comes out. I like the tablet and it is great for when you travel for media, kindle and email and doc review. The fact that there is no boot up time is key and you things can be done on the fly. Try booting up a netbook in the back of the car and waiting for windows to load teh outlook to open, etc.... Anyways, back to the point...I got the Ipad and liked it until I got a Droid X. The Droid X is amazing and to think the Xoom will be even better is what is driving me to purchase it. The lack of flash on the Ipad is a bigger deal then I thought and I truly love the widget capability of andriod which is a no go with Apple. $800 is a bit step but when you use it all the time it is worth it.
I know a jailbroken iPhone3G & S can dual boot Andy. I haven't seen or heard about it on the 4 or iPad tho. It'd be awesome, and I'm sure it'll happen sooner or later based on the fact that Apple is based on linux.
The story is still on the front page of DF.net. Check it out:

**I may have mis-interpreted the article tho, going back now to re-read it. But still, check it out, because it's all about their strategy to stop Andy.

I hope you're not saying the X is better then the iPad. The only thing it does better is take pictures and make phone calls.
Sounds like he prefers the android OS over the iOS.

No I am not saying the X is "better" than the Ipad but I am saying Android is "better" than IOs. I like the functionality of the X better than the Ipad but I do like the big screen etc.

u can also buy a core i3 convertible tablet for the same price but....
don't forget that people are willing to pay top dollar for crazy things like $1k LV bags, $400 vacuums and $800 DSLRs (and they take 30 pics a year).
don't underestimate alpha consumers
Bestbuy no interest financing card.... xoom here I come
It really is a decent price at $800 sure it would be nice if it were cheaper but it is WAY better than the ipad and just slightly more $ than the ipad 32GB counter part.....
