You mean the same Motorola Xoom that may have sold as few as 25,000[1] units?

Also, two of those Xooms are gathering dust here at work. We got them intending to write Android versions of the iOS apps we were making... The iPads were fought over, but one of the Xooms ended up in a file cabinet for a few months, and the other has barely been touched either. I feel sorry for those things. The only thing a Xoom is really good for is disappointing your kids on Christmas morning.


That article also says "number of Xooms sold between 25,000 and 120,000". And don't forget that the price was very expensive at launch.

My point was that saying the one true tablet is the iPad is false but HP is the wrong player to consider.


Even if it's 250,000 sold, that's still not even a dent in iPad sales.
