Motorola Xoom Production To End In June? New Model?

We already know that Motorola has the Xoom out in the market as the frist honeycomb tablet, and its anything but a finished product. The nearest competitor Samsung has announced a June launch date for their Honeycomb tablet and webOS powered HP touchpad is hitting the markets around the same time. So the rumors claiming that Motorola is slowing down the production of Xoom and will stop producing it in June is not a surprise to us.

The product is unfinished hardware and software. Users have to send back the device at a later date to get LTE and microSd card slot awaits an update to Android Honeycomb. There are plenty other issues with a salability of a Honeycomb tablet, but Motorola sure is risking poor customer reaction by selling the Xoom early. The only benefit they have is to be the only worthy (on paper at least) competitor to the iPad out there.

While Motorola denies the news, we might well see a Xoom 2 coming out in Q2/3.
