Impressed by the Motorola Xoom specs sheet and its beautiful design ? Time to grab your tablet as Best Buy stores are now accepting pre-orders for the Motorola XOOM tablet. The Tablet comes with Honeycomb and the orders are expected to begin shipment from this Thursday, February 24. Priced at $799.99 complete with Verizon 3G connectivity, the XOOM has a 10.1-inch screen and runs Android 3.0, the tablet-centric version of the Google mobile platform.

There’s also a range of accessories on offer, including two docks – a desktop dock, for $49.99, and a speaker dock, for $129.99 – a portfolio case, for $39.99, and a Bluetooth keyboard for $69.99. You’ll need a Verizon data contract in order to use the integrated 3G connection – a WiFi-only XOOM is expected in Q2 2011 – and the carrier has promised a 4G update later in the year.
So, anybody tempted? Or are you one of those awaiting the 8.9-inch, 3D-capable LG G-Slate from T-Mobile instead?
