directly connected to Verizon's 3G wireless network. The device sells for $ 600 to customers who sign two-year contract with Verizon, Verizon said on Tuesday.
data service will cost 20 dollars for 1 gigabyte of bandwidth per month and Verizon also will charge an additional fee to users who use the larger data.
Users also can enhance the ability of Xoom to Verizon 4G data services free of charge in the coming months. Verizon did not say exactly how it will be implemented.
Some assessment considers Xoom as most can match the iPad. Apple has sold more than 15 million since its debut iPad less than a year ago.
However, Apple's tablet menggunguli Xoom Motorola in the matter of price. IPad 3G without a contract operator sells for $ 629 while the Xoom service with no contract ties sell for $ 800.
Operators use bond contracts to subsidize hardware costs for two years and the customer must pay for its services setap months. Verizon and AT & T does not offer subsidized iPad.
iPad for entry-level only offers Wi-Fi connectivity for $ 500. Motorola will also offer WiFi Xoom version, but Motorola has not revealed pricing or launch dates.
Sanjay Jha, Motorola's CEO told the Wall Street Journal that Xoom Wi-Fi version will be "cheaper. IPad price 599 dollars, and we're not far from it"
Xoom is the first tablet that uses the Android operating system version 3.0 . The operating system is called Honeycomb and designed specifically for the tablet. The device can store 32 gigabytes worth of files and has a pair of cameras for video chat.
Unlike the iPad, Xoom will be present with Flash video player. Adobe Systems said that the latest version of Flash will be available within a few weeks after the launch of Xoom.
Apple iPad certainly will announce the latest on March 2. Recently, Verizon started selling the iPhone 4 and iPad at its stores, meaning it is likely that Verizon will also handle the new iPad.
