Motorola Xoom Now Officially Going To Sprint May 8th, WiFi Only

Sound the bells guys, its official, Sprint is getting the WiFi only version of the Motorola Xoom and the price is not too bad. The latest press release from Sprint says that they will begin Xoom WiFi-only sales this coming May 8th. Now this doesn’t mean our hopes for a Sprint 4G version is in the trash, no, but this most likely just mean Sprint is very excited to get this on their shelves so when the HTC tablet comes out, it will not be lonely. My thoughts on this is; like Verizon and the iPad, they are not allow to sell the 3G version since that’s already an AT&T exclusive, so they might just bundle it up with a 4G MiFi and end it there.

The spec sheet is the same as that of the Verizon version, so expect:

• Android Market for access to more than 150,000 useful applications, widgets and games available for download to customize the experience
• Google mobile services such as Google Search™, Gmail™, Google Maps™ with Navigation, Google Calendar, Voice Actions, and YouTube™
• Corporate email (Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync®), personal (POP & IMAP) email and instant messaging
• Bluetooth® 2.1 + EDR
• Integrated GPS
• 1GB internal RAM memory and 32GB onboard user memory
• Dimensions: 9.8 inches x 6.6 inches x 0.5 inches (249.1mm x 167.8mm x 12.7mm)
• Weight: 25.74 ounces (730 grams)
• 3250 mAh Lithium-ion battery
