There was a missed opportunity by the author here when blaming Motorola. I can forgive poor advertising because I like to think I'm one of those people who will make a purchase based more on research than something I saw on TV. However, I was flabbergasted that the Xoom was rushed to market so quickly that it had a non-functional SDHC slot and required you to send it in at some later date to get a 4G antenna put in. It is unbelievable that such a large company would release a product that is so clearly unfinished. What I find sad is that I'm sure plenty of non-technical users will miss the memo about the 4G upgrade and will either return the product because the internet connection is slow or even worse, will live with a product that didn't deliver the featureset on the box.

As much as I like to pick at Apple for all of their nonsense, the competition in the tablet space (and in many ways the mobile phone space) should be embarrassed with themselves.
