KT subscribers - Without a contract, you can get this smartphone device for KRW 800,000 (USD 733), and that is cheaper than many other dual-core powered smartphones. Plus, KT gives out free HD Multimedia Docks to Atrix subscribers. In the US, its price tag says USD 99.99. KT seems pretty desperate (Apple is not exclusive to KT anymore, you know). SKT subscribers - Sadly, HD Multimedia Dock won't be included in the basic package, but you can buy between that and Laptop Dock. The price of the device will be announced tomorrow. If you get one for yourself before the 30th, SKT will draw lots and give out 100 Motorola Xoom tablets and 100 laptop docks for Atrix, and you can be one of them.

I know that iPad is an amazing device and it's surprisingly cheap, but don't you feel that all you can see is iPad when you look around? Well, if you are looking for something that is not iPad nor a giant smartphone like Galaxy Tab, here's your first choice. Motorola Mobility is bringing 3G + Wi-fi XOOM which is their collaboration work with Google. It's coming to SK Telecom in mid April. Honeycomb is the code name for Android OS version 3.0. Probably your Galaxy S has Froyo, version 2.2, and Nexus S has Gingerbread, version 2.3. Honeycomb is the version made entirely for tablets, and it offers you phenomenal experiences. I have one for myself, and its notification and web browsing capability is better than any other tablet PCs including iPad. Google Chrome Browser will let you have the same web browsing experience like when you're using your laptop or desktop. If you use Chrome on your PC or Mac, you can sync your bookmarks with XOOM. Plus, Adobe Flash Player 10.2 is available so if you can see something on the browser on your computer, you will see it on your XOOM, too. It is true that there are not many applications for honeycomb tablets, but everyday there are new apps on Android Market, and still most of Gingerbread apps work fine on XOOM. Its resolution is 1280 x 800 and that is the best among all the tablets available now. 10.1 inch screen is perfect for watching YouTube videos and reading newspapers. Its battery lasts for about 10 hours and recharging takes only 2-3 hours. That's good. However, it is kinda heavy, and it is slightly heavier than the original iPad. Motorola XOOM Wi-fi version won't be launched this time, and we'll never know. The price in unspecified yet but its US price was USD 799 so don't count on it. |
