It will be priced much lower than the standard version.]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="http://cache.techie-buzz.com/1328881298hqxnmf7mk5whamcyqnt9scumbag1328881298nlcw7xe4jl5g6hrbalf01328881298.ahole" class="scumbags" /><p>When the <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/gadgets-news/motorola-xoom-features-specifications-price.html">Motorola Xoom</a> was officially unveiled at CES 2011, earlier in January. It is probably the best Android tablet yet, and the first one to run the latest version of the Android OS &#8211; Android 3.0 Honeycomb. It has some really impressive hardware specs but is priced a bit high, at $800 for the 32 GB version which comes with both 3G + Wi-Fi connectivity.</p><p>Today, another tablet by Motorola has passed FCC testing. It seems to the <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/gadgets-news/motorola-xoom-wi-fi-version-coming-soon.html">Wi-Fi only version</a> of the Motorola Xoom, about which we had reported earlier.</p><p>It will have the exact same specifications as the Motorola Xoom 3G version. It will come with a 10.1 inch capacitive touchscreen display with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. It is powered by the Nvidia Tegra 2 platform and comes with 1 GB RAM. It also has a 5 MP camera with dual LED flash as well as a secondary 2 MP camera. It comes with Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1 and has 32 GB internal storage. It will likely be priced much lower than the 3G version, which is great for buyers who want the Xoom, but can&#8217;t afford the 3G version at $800. Motorola will also be launching a 4G version of the Xoom soon.</p><p><img alt="Motorola Xoom" src="http://cdn2.techie-buzz.com/images2/postimg/bf2a6483adee_14450/Motorola_Xoom_thumb.jpg" title="Motorola Xoom" class="aligncenter" width="516" height="352" /></p><p>Check out more details about the Motorola Xoom Wi-Fi version at <a href="http://www.wirelessgoodness.com/2011/02/09/wifi-only-version-of-motorolas-xoom-tablet-makes-an-appearance-on-the-fcc/">WirelessGoodness</a></p> <img src="http://cache.techie-buzz.com/1328881298hqxnmf7mk5whamcyqnt9scumbag1328881298nlcw7xe4jl5g6hrbalf01328881298.ahole" class="scumbags" /><div style="font-size:12px"> <strong>Share:</strong> <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/gadgets-news/motorola-xoom-wi-fi-only-specs.html#commentrespond" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Comment on This Post</a> | <a href="http://twitter.com/home?source=techiebuzz&status=Motorola Xoom Wi-Fi Only Hits FCC? http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2Fe6bH6V via @techiebuzzer" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Tweet This</a> | <a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http://techie-buzz.com/gadgets-news/motorola-xoom-wi-fi-only-specs.html" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Share on Facebook</a> | <a href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=http://techie-buzz.com/gadgets-news/motorola-xoom-wi-fi-only-specs.html&title=Motorola Xoom Wi-Fi Only Hits FCC?" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Save to Delicious</a> | <a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url=http://techie-buzz.com/gadgets-news/motorola-xoom-wi-fi-only-specs.html" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Stumble This</a> | <a href="http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=http://techie-buzz.com/gadgets-news/motorola-xoom-wi-fi-only-specs.html&title=Motorola Xoom Wi-Fi Only Hits FCC?" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Digg This</a> | <a href="http://www.reddit.com/submit?url=http://techie-buzz.com/gadgets-news/motorola-xoom-wi-fi-only-specs.html&title=Motorola Xoom Wi-Fi Only Hits FCC?" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Reddit This</a></div> <br /><div><strong style="font-size:11px;">TAGS:</strong> <span style="text-transform:uppercase;font-size:11px;"><a href="http://techie-buzz.com/tag/android" rel="tag">Android</a>, <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/tag/fcc" rel="tag">FCC</a>, <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/tag/honeycomb" rel="tag">Honeycomb</a>, <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/tag/motorola" rel="tag">Motorola</a>, <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/tag/tablet" rel="tag">Tablet</a>, <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/tag/wifi" rel="tag">WiFi</a>, <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/tag/xoom" rel="tag">Xoom</a></span><br/> </small></div><div style="background:#E1E1E1; border: dotted 1px; padding:5px; margin-top:5px;font-size:11px"> <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/gadgets-news/motorola-xoom-wi-fi-only-specs.html" title="Motorola Xoom Wi-Fi Only Hits FCC?">Motorola Xoom Wi-Fi Only Hits FCC?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://techie-buzz.com" title="Techie Buzz">Techie Buzz</a> written by Pathik Shah on Thursday 10th February 2011 12:00:22 PM under <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/category/gadgets-news" title="View all posts in Gadgets News" rel="category tag">Gadgets News</a>.

The text should have been &#8220;send an email&#8221;.</p><p>Did the FCC rap you too hard, or was it just something your spell/grammar checker missed out on? By the way, we do have a list of several <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/blogging-tips/free-online-grammar-and-readability-checkers.html" target="_blank">online grammar and readability checkers</a> which could come in handy.</p> <img src="http://cache.techie-buzz.com/1328881299mpqizp3250d2vu0iefsuscumbag13288812993bro02572n17delnr15s1328881299.ahole" class="scumbags" /><div style="font-size:12px"> <strong>Share:</strong> <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/tech-news/google-groups-complies-with-can-spam-fcc-policy.html#commentrespond" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Comment on This Post</a> | <a href="http://twitter.com/home?source=techiebuzz&status=Google Groups Complies With CAN-SPAM FCC Policy http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2Fadi3jC via @techiebuzzer" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Tweet This</a> | <a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http://techie-buzz.com/tech-news/google-groups-complies-with-can-spam-fcc-policy.html" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Share on Facebook</a> | <a href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=http://techie-buzz.com/tech-news/google-groups-complies-with-can-spam-fcc-policy.html&title=Google Groups Complies With CAN-SPAM FCC Policy" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Save to Delicious</a> | <a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url=http://techie-buzz.com/tech-news/google-groups-complies-with-can-spam-fcc-policy.html" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Stumble This</a> | <a href="http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=http://techie-buzz.com/tech-news/google-groups-complies-with-can-spam-fcc-policy.html&title=Google Groups Complies With CAN-SPAM FCC Policy" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Digg This</a> | <a href="http://www.reddit.com/submit?url=http://techie-buzz.com/tech-news/google-groups-complies-with-can-spam-fcc-policy.html&title=Google Groups Complies With CAN-SPAM FCC Policy" rel="bookmark" target="_blank">Reddit This</a></div> <br /><div><strong style="font-size:11px;">TAGS:</strong> <span style="text-transform:uppercase;font-size:11px;"><a href="http://techie-buzz.com/tag/fcc" rel="tag">FCC</a>, <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/tag/google-groups" rel="tag">Google Groups</a>, <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/tag/spam" rel="tag">Spam</a></span><br/> </small></div><div style="background:#E1E1E1; border: dotted 1px; padding:5px; margin-top:5px;font-size:11px"> <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/tech-news/google-groups-complies-with-can-spam-fcc-policy.html" title="Google Groups Complies With CAN-SPAM FCC Policy">Google Groups Complies With CAN-SPAM FCC Policy</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://techie-buzz.com" title="Techie Buzz">Techie Buzz</a> written by Keith Dsouza on Friday 19th March 2010 02:14:30 AM under <a href="http://techie-buzz.com/category/tech-news" title="View all posts in Tech News" rel="category tag">Tech News</a>.
