On the evening of Tuesday April 12th, WonderMoms.ca had the privilege of being invited to the launch of the all New Motorola Xoom tablet. An innovative tablet experience and worthy alternate to others currently on the market today. The evening was designed
to make those involved feel pampered and relaxed while freely using the Motorola Xoom. Motorola and their PR firm had the
right idea, by setting the launch party up in a downtown salon. We were treated to manicures and pedicures, not to mention
a wide variety of food and beverages. There was no pressure put on any of us, just sit back and enjoy what was in front of
you. We all know how much us ladies like to be pampered.
For
those of us who are the faint of heart, the Motorola Xoom was surprisingly easy and fun to use. It is the first such product
to run Android 3.0 (Honeycomb), Google's powerful operating system designed specifically for tablets and featuring the latest
Google Mobile services. The Xoom uses your current W-Fi connection, is ready to use right out of the box, and comes with
support for Adobe Flash Player, which you can download form the Android Market. It's 10.1" HD widescreen display is
simply awesome. The colors and clarity were in a word, astounding.
For the multi-tasker in all of us, the Motorola Xoom can handle everything
you need to do, be it finding directions using Google Maps 5.0 with 3D interaction or accessing over 3 million Google eBooks.
It is all there at your fingertips. Checking your personal or work emails is simply a snap. What made using the Xoom so
much fun, was the fact that while being pampered and fed the representatives from Motorola were patiently awaiting questions.
They let us play without making it a sales pitch for their product. Quite frankly, the product speaks for itself.
The wild adventurer types would be just as satisfied being able to utilize
the rear-facing 5 megapixel camera with flash that captures video in HD. You can quickly and seamlessly connect to any television
using HDMI connectivity. Again, simple and easy to use. Post to Youtube, Picasa or Facebook or engage with friends and family
through Motorola Xoom's front-facing camera which is easy to use for video calling.
To summarize for the techie in all of us, it combines larger and higher
resolution display in a smaller form-factor. Comes equipped with dual-core 1 GHz processor and a wide variety of docking
options. It is very light weight, 25 ounces and has a great battery life of up to 10 hours of video playback. The memory
is supported with an onboard 32 GB user memory, microSD card support after future software update, and 1GB DDR2 Ram.
As a Digital Mom, I am always being ask to test out innovative new products
to see how they are in my busy life. I sincerely hope the shopping gods are listening, as I would love to have one of the
Motorola Xoom tablets to use, both professionally and personally. It was a wonderfully satisfying experience, and I have
pretty toes to boot.
