Hi,
do we know, when the Xoom comes out in Europe (especially in Germany) finally?
no announcement yet on it. but if you look at the xoom US price it is quite cheap in euro's if you inport one once GSM or wifi version comes out
http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/news/coming-soon/motorola-xoom-3g
Expected April 2011
3g version sold by CPW & Bestbuy
Wifi version to be sold by DSG (currys, pc world et al)
http://www.electricpig.co.uk/2011/02/17/motorola-xoom-uk-stockists-announced/
omg still 2 month. Maybe Xoom and Samsung Galaxy 10.1 will start at the same time
Good chance that GT10.1 will be in stores next month... at least they are trying to start sales before Xoom hits the shops.
The wait is killing me..!
So PC World UK have a page up for the wifi version
http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/motorola-xoom-1316-commercial.html
Looks like they will be asking £449.99 for it

Article also mentions Germany........
"CW expects the 3G Xoom to arrive in April. In Germany, T-Mobile has the tablet's availability pencilled in for the end of that month. "

T-Mobile will have the Xoom available at the end of April. It will cost €699.95 and will be available exclusively at T-Mobile for the first 3 months.

Now they start the "exclusive per carrier"-crap like in the US, in Germany too.
Xoom for T-Mobile and Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 for Vodafone?!
keep refreshing that pcworld/currys page waiting for the pre-order for £450 to open so I can order myself one... ::sigh::
No mention of a UK release/price which is a shame.
Spotted on Eurodroid (via Twitter).
Samsung’s pair of forthcoming Android tablets look like hitting the market at the end of this month, in some parts of Europe at least, with Samsung Finland and Sweden announcing that both tablets will launch there on June 29.
The Samsung Android 3.1 tablets will be exclusive on local network Telia to begin with. Unlocked versions will follow in August (10.1) and September (8.9), with prices ranging from €499 for the cheapest wi-fi only 8.9 model up to €699 for the 3G version of the Galaxy Tab 10.1.

I'm more interested in the price, considering Maharashtra has the highest tax slab on electronics and mobile devices.

Well m also very much interested in buying it, it seems to be a dream phone, and we can also go for a group buy for better pricing.

Well let it launch once, one way is, we all indian members can enquire for the cheapest group buy prices in our cities and order from wherever we get it most cheap.
Ah well, I already ordered mine from Germany.

Actually I got it from eBay, the seller had decent reviews so I thought what the heck. I couldn't get it ordered from online German retailers since the only one which could ship to India was charging me 290 Euro for shipping. It is set to be shipped today and then delivered within 3-5 business days, hope it goes well.
EDIT : It was 820$(USD) plus 79$ for shipping. I'm not sure what the import duty will be, but I'll deal with it.
good luck with indian customs ... im sure saale bahut jyaada charge karenge tujhko .. all the best !
I only had to pay 14% for my ipad 2, it can't be more than that. Plus I chose fedex which has there own custom clearance department so it gets processed faster.

That's still so expensive..smh.. hope its price is lower when it launches in India.. 40k+ Rs is just too much.. its supposed to be a hybrid of galaxy tab 750 and a galaxy s2.. so ithe price is supposed to be in between.. but since Samsung doesn't want to interfere in the sell of the new galaxy tab, it is costlier.. and besides there is still no other product in d phoblet department to compete with the galaxy note.. so its goin to be expensive here too ,I guess
It's supposed to arrive today

For how much nd from where..? do u hav to pay vat if u ship it from germany to India?
Samsung will be hosting a press conference in New Delhi on May 31 to launch the Galaxy S III in India but the smartphone is likely to be available a week later. Multiple sources have told BGR India that the Galaxy S III will be available on store shelves around June 8. Even online retailers are expecting units to be available for shipping from June 8 onwards.
We are also hearing that the Galaxy S III will be priced at Rs 39,990. This is likely to be the MRP and not the street price. However, considering the high profile nature of the Galaxy S III, we cannot confirm whether the phone will retail at Rs 39,990 for the first few weeks or will it, like all other phones, have a different market operating price as soon as it is launched. At the moment, Samsung is taking pre-bookings for the Galaxy S III and is offering a free Bluetooth headset for those who commit Rs 2,000 to reserve their unit.
The Galaxy S III will compete with the HTC One X, which was launched in India for Rs 37,899 and is now retailing at about Rs 36,000. Samsung might just put a premium on the Galaxy S III, considering the success of the Galaxy S II and the Galaxy Note as well as its marketing muscle, which would easily overshadow what HTC has done so far for the One X. Ideally, HTC could gain some additional sales were it to slash the price of the One X but that is unlikely to happen.

Nice June 8 isn't too far from now. I'm excited for Indian users as a lot of them are into samsung devices and also great developers like Gadgetcheck.
