Motorola have announced that the first carrier for the Xoom 2 in Australia is Telstra. On paper, the Xoom 2 is well up there on current market specs and frankly after the disappointing Xoom I hope that Motorola got it right this time.

The Xoom 2 features:

  • 10.1″ screen
  • 1.2ghz Dual Core processor
  • 1GB Ram
  • 32GB Storage

and it’s much thinner than the original.

It’s available on the $29, $39, $49 and $89 data plans with hardware repayments. Check out the Telstra site for more details HERE

Now the really good bit, not only is it thinner, lighter and faster than the original Xoom…

Motorola have stated that it WILL (as expected) be upgraded to Ice cream Sandwich quite soon although no date has been confirmed yet.
