Earlier this morning, Best Buy put up a pre-order page for the upcoming Motorola Xoom, pricing the tablet at an insane $1200.
The listing also confirmed a late February release.
At around 6 PM, however, Best Buy took down the listing, with no word on when it will return. Originally, leaks had shown the Xoom selling for $800.
More notably is the fact that to be able to use Wi-Fi on the device, you must pay for at least 1 month of Verizon 3G service, which will cost you a minimum $20 for a 1GB package. That fact was also confirmed by the new Best Buy listing.
Motorola's Xoom will be the first tablet to run Android 3.0 Honeycomb, which has been optimized for media tablets.
The powerful tablet will ship with a 10.1-inch display, 1280x800 resolution, a Nvidia Tegra 2 1GHz dual-core processor, 1GB DDR2 RAM, 32GB onboard memory (expendable via SD), a 5MP dual-LED flash standard camera and a 2MP front-side camera for video conferencing.
Furthermore, the tablet has a micro USB 2.0 port, an HDMI-port, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR.
Battery life has been rated at 10 hours (peak) for video playback.
