Well if those are my only options then I would choose the xoom but I'm biased. I own one. I think the Asus might be a good buy but seems doomed to fail with low stock. If you can possibly wait 2 months then you'll have more honeycomb tablet options. Google is rumoured to have a nexus tablet in the works, possibly from Toshiba and could be THE tablet!! But in the meantime, I'm absolutely loving my xoom.

There is speculation over that.
I liken the Xoom to Android Dev Phone 1, or the G1, same phone really.
In other words, we're the first - but not THE device of Google. Right now, it's the "Apple of Google's Eye" D) - for now.

I've been debating on the transformer or the Xoom....
now that the Xoom has SD access, will custom roms be next? Or is something still missing?
Yes, AFAIK still HC missing source code, although bits are starting to come out.

Why wait once source gets released I'm sure the xoom will be the more worked on device

Or you know.. Because it has a significantly better screen. Oh and wait, it's cheaper than the Xoom with a keyboard! Even if you don't use the keyboard, you still have it. Unless I'm mistaken and it doesn't come with the keyboard, because I have been not caring about the thing at all lol.

Mainly the SD card not working. But also things like the UI lags, there aren't enough apps, its heavy (I know, not fixable). Crap like that.
And the keyboard for the Transformer is $150 I believe.
People choose Transformer because it has better IPS screen and cheaper, and that's important.

Hmm. I'm not trying to be dense here but for me at least, the IPS screen is not better. Going by the iPad screen anyway, for reading it's not that great, and that's a major part of what I'll be doing with the Xoom.

This is simply a lie coming from someone who owned both and now only Xoom. I pad screen is better at everything. Its brighter AND crisper so how can't u read?
Well, no it's not a lie. Thanks for calling me a liar though.
I've read on the iPad and it was OK but not brilliant, the letters just don't "pop" like they do in a book or ereader. I haven't seen a Xoom yet but I've been led to believe by reviews that it's better for reading than the iPad.
My opinion: the ipad is too bright, even when its toned down. Especially if your in bed at night try to not wake up the person next to you or land air planes on your bed.

Get the Nook Color if you want a cheap tablet that you will root and mod. It doesn't have a camera or gps and can be had for as low as $150. XDA has great support for it as well.
Also, look at the viewsonic viewbook 730. It is similar in specs to the nook, except it has a camera. Not much support in XDA from what I can tell, but I have seen some for less than $200.

What case are you planning on buying? My sister wants to put on a cell phone charm as well, but the only cases that have a cutout for the lanyard are Samsung cases that we've found so far.
Actually...I liked "Take over the world"
Buying more accessories for it than I need. Cables, cases, batteries, chargers, screen protectors, etc... till I figure out which ones I like best and use most often, then the rest will stay in a box as spares.
