I'm the newbie, ordered
WiFi version early with an expected Aug. 27th delivery / ship date — So, what the heck is it with not being able to purchase a replacement battery?
Not exact matches
We suspect that it's a wide window for carrier launches with 3G but the indication is that there will be a
WiFi only
version which should launch
earlier based on the fact that no 3G certification will be needed.
Early word would suggest that this is only rolling out to
WiFi XOOMs and not the Verizon 3G
version, but we're still waiting for confirmation on that.
As seen in the image above, the 16 GB
Wifi version will sell for $ 499.99 and be available in «week 17» (late March /
early April - ish).
