We've had some discussion on the list about the sub-$200 Android
tablets. How about the higher-end models? Anyone own or test drive on of
those? (The ones below are either not available yet or too new, but
there have been a few before these, like the 7" Samsung Galaxy Tab.)

  The Motorola Xoom is the first tablet to run the Android 3.0
  "Honeycomb" OS. Revealed at CES earlier this week, the device sports a
  1GHz dual core processor, a 10-inch screen and 4G connectivity.

  Samsung just delivered another broadside against Apple in the tablet
  wars. After unveiling a 7-in. Android tablet, the Galaxy Tab, late
  last year to what became an underwhelming customer response, the
  Korean company upped its game, announcing a 10-in. version running a
  better operating system. The Tab 10.1 will be one of the lightest
  tablets in an increasingly crowded marketplace, and it runs Honeycomb,
  the next-generation version of Android optimized for tablets. It
  ships this spring in Europe and Asia; no U.S. launch date has been
  announced yet.
