According to sources some websites has started taking the pre-orders for the Wi-Fi-only Motorola Xoom saying the Android tablet is predicted to come in the first week of April.
That price mark may increase a few coats among Xoom-craving Brits, mind. Previously one of website has by mistake published a page for Xoom pre-orders, which had the price at £449.99.
Now it has, with the tablet costing £50 more than PC World had estimated. The 32GB Wi-Fi Xoom will thus be approaching a week after Apple's iPad 2 in the UK, with Apple's 3G-less 32GB model estimated to rate £499.
It operates Google's Android 3.0 Honeycomb OS, has a 10.1-inch screen, and weighs in at 730g. The 5-megapixel rear camera and 2-megapixel front cam out-muscle their iPad 2 equivalents, although expect to be having a Skype or other videochat apps rather than Apple's FaceTime, obviously.
Xoom has a built-in HDMI port and an SD-card slot, if you're in search for more differences from the iPad 2.
