Motorola Xoom has a component cost of $ 360, according to iSuppli

This type of analysis we must take with tweezers, I like to clarify from the outset that what iSuppli is establishing a cost components that have an idea, and to compare in similar conditions of competition. For He has made all the important gadgets in the market, and the truth is that we wanted a device such as Motorola Xoom, so questioned for his alleged high price.

The price component of the tablet Honeycomb is 359.92 dollars. Outside are a whole bunch of concepts such as distribution, advertising, manufacturing, design, etc, etc. But it is curious to see how a first generation iPad (32GB/3G) is somewhat less expensive, $ 320. The new iPad will be in a tablet-like numbers of Motorola.

Let's review the most important components: We remind you that 3G has Xoom Motorola to market U.S. $ 800 without any contract, the iPad comparable model 2 is for $ 729. Motorola itself, in the words of its CEO Sanjay Jha, reported that the version would go for 599.99 WiFi dollars, but the point is that a U.S.

store, Sam's Club, announced over $ 539 with 32GB. This price would be 40 euros more expensive than a 16GB iPad 2. It seems that seeing the actual prices in stores WiFi version we're getting the idea that you can be competitive. If we rely on information from PC World, Xoom Motorola could reach Europe on 9 April, at least in the UK, which also announced a price for the WiFi version of 499.99 pounds (599 euros).

Once submitted, bet iPad 2, with clear dates and prices for Europe, it is time that the competition will put the batteries so that customers can plan the purchase of one or another option. Track | PCWorld | Phandroid | iSuppli
