My Motorola Xoom unboxing part 1
was previously opened in the US when my mom bought it. But
still....right?
Nothing much to see in the box. The tablet, the proprietary charger, a
USB cable (which I did not open yet), some documentations and nothing
more, not even a CD for software.

Honeycomb tablet price wars
When I chose to get the Motorola Xoom, everybody was saying that it was expensive for it's line. I would agree perhaps on the 3G version but not on the WiFi only one.
When the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 came out, everybody was excited (so as me) because it was slim and sleek, but no one criticized it for the price, after checking the price, it turned out that the WiFi version has the same price of the Motorola Xoom WiFi only.
It may be slimmer, but it lacks the port that I was looking for, for it to be a laptop replacement. Partly they were right, because the Galaxy Tab 10.1 did aim for the slimness of the iPad2, and so as the lack of ports. Now, Samsung is coming out with adapters that will go into the universal port of the Tab, just for it to have USB hosting capabilities (which incidentally came out with the Android 3.1 update). As with the Motorola Xoom, well, I'm still looking for the micro to full-sized USB adapter (which does not cost as much as the Tab adapter).

Microsoft unveils Windows 8
We're live from Microsoft Windows president Steven Sinofsky's keynote at D9, and there's something rather exciting on stage -- a pair of experimental Windows 8 dev boards running an OS that looks very much like Windows Phone 7's Metro UI. All Things D actually sat down with the man earlier today and got a sneak peek at what to expect starting with the live tiled screen you see above -- and yes, like Windows Phone 7, this OS is designed for touch.
There'll be two kinds of applications for Windows 8, one that runs in a traditional desktop, and the other pseudo-mobile apps based on HTML5 and Javascript, but both environments -- rather, the entire OS -- have been designed from the ground up for touchscreen use. Keyboard and mouse will still be options for both sets of programs, but there are multiple virtual sets of keys for different form factors, including a split keyboard for vertical slate use. Multitasking is simply a matter of swiping running apps into the center of the screen, and you can pull windows partway to "snap" them in place alongside other windows -- even mixing and matching traditional desktop programs with web apps simultaneously (like Twitter alongside your spreadsheet). There's a new version of Internet Explorer 10 (which runs Silverlight) and an app store built into the touchscreen interface, along with integrated services like Office 365. Microsoft says the new OS will run on laptops, tablets and desktops when it appears -- whenever that might be.
All Things D didn't have any details on when we'll get pricing or availability, but we're looking at some Intel Atom-based demo units on stage right now, and Microsoft says it will have ARM designs (the OS will support NVIDIA, TI and Qualcomm) viewable on the Computex show floor, and more will be revealed at the Build Windows developer conference in September. We should note that "Windows 8" is just a codename for what we're seeing here -- "we'll figure out the real name in due time," Sinofsky told the crowd -- but we don't see much harm in calling it Windows 8 for now.
Update: Video after the break!
