TORONTO -- Motorola Mobility Canada today announced the Motorola XOOM Wi-Fi is now available for purchase online from Best Buy and Future Shop, and will be available in-stores across the country beginning April 8. Providing higher resolution and more screen size in a smaller package than the leading competitor, the first device in Canada to run on Android(3.0) (Honeycomb) platform, Motorola XOOM Wi-Fi features a 1GHz-dual core processor and 1 GB of RAM, front-facing and rear-facing cameras, true multi-tasking functionality and the latest Google Mobile services on a 10.1 inch widescreen HD display.

Called the "the most potentially disruptive technology" by CNET at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show, Motorola XOOM Wi-Fi showcases the innovations of the Honeycomb user experience - including widgets, true multi-tasking, browsing, notifications and customization - on a 10.1-inch widescreen HD display, enabling video content that's richer and clearer than ever before. Support for HDMI enables viewing of videos and movies on larger screens, such as HD televisions. A 5 MP rear-facing camera captures HD video and 2 MP front-facing camera enables clear video chats using GoogleTalk.

The latest Google Mobile services include Google Maps 5.0 with 3D interaction, Gmail, and access to thousands of apps from Android Market. Motorola XOOM Wi-Fi also supports a Beta of Adobe Flash Player 10.2 downloadable from Android Market, enabling the delivery of Flash based web content including videos, casual games and rich Internet applications.
