I have an iPad and I am really thinking about getting a Xoom. I don't know how apps are for the xoom, if most apps already support honeycomb ...
.... What are current owners feedback? How are apps developing going and does slingbox already work on the xoom?
Thanks all for the help!
Almost every past app works on the xoom, though some look a bit stretched.
The honeycomb API hasn't been out long, but there are quite a few nice 3.0 apps already out.

Netflix... not now, and possibly not for awhile, but it is certain....
and slingbox I can't answer for sure, but i'm pretty sure i've seen people on this forum talking about using it... you can search if you want.

I will be picking up an Atrix to play with very soon.
Are there any tutorial/review videos you guys would like to see? I'm going to have a bit of free time after this week so I figured I'd help some people out

Works great on the Epic. A whole lot of Droid original users are pissed though. It's awesome...now I want my Netflix dammit. But already I fear my entire mind is going to be taken over by this phone...I mean those TV masters made *everydamnthing* available in this app! It looks and sounds pretty good too, but I've only used it on Wifi, haven't tried 4 or (ha) 3G yet.

I can hardly blame ya! It's a ridiculous number of factor-hurdles to make it work--subscription, connection, device. What a headache it is for users and for content companies with their contracts up the wazoo to work out. With time though I think it'll get worked out. Or maybe someone will figure out a hack...
I was hype for it but optimum isnt supported i cant wait till it is tho.
Next best thing to netflix

Look at the first replay here!
Not available in 3.0.1 so far on all tablets.
It's very irritating, as it stops me leaving reviews (I would like to review many apps, but I won't go to the effort of finding them on the browser).
Guess I'll have to keep my comments to myself until the feature is added, but frankly, I can't believe it wasn't added in the first place.
I don't think it's in 3.1 either, actually.

Same Issue in 3.1 ...
Many apps don't scale the text right and those tiny lists would surely get app ratings down which would be unfair to the devs.

Well not really; if their app doesn't run well on Honeycomb, I think it's fair for Honeycomb users to give it an honest rating. Emphasis on honest, of course... no flippin' "one-star until feature X/ until Y fixed"...
Unless I've misunderstood what you were saying!
Having said that though, if an app doesn't run well in Honeycomb for me, I much prefer to contact the dev directly (at least that feature exists in Honeycomb's market) and get an answer as to what's up. The devs are only too happy to answer questions, usually, and you can get feedback to them directly, giving them a chance to work on it without just leaving a review.
Agreed. I'd very much like to rate the good apps that are well designed for tablets as well...
Thank you all for your help.

Eh... I have it on my phone too but am perfectly fine with the market on the Xoom. Its geared towards tablets, thats fine by me.
The Honeycomb market app kinda feels like unfinished business tho. I wonder why after all these months we still can't rate or comment to apps. For tablet-only apps it means feedback ends up limited to people installig through web-based push-to-device, or taking the time to log back through a web browser to comment and rate.
Some people did manually install that new market app on their tablet, but the UI is clearly not optimized for it.
Anyone try to install the market apk on the xoom?

Go into manage apps and then market and uninstall updates
found this post on captivate general forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169233
you can download the new market app if your tab has not updated to the new version yet. make sure to click 'thanks' button for the original contributor.
this update def. makes tab looks more tab-like if you know what i mean. i have been browsing book catalog for awhile and found a handful of good books.
i'd say the merge of google books and video rental service def. makes tab a stand-alone device. with samsung allshare running, im really happy with what i have right now
P.S <<search patterns>> by peter morville is a good book i just found on the market
cheers

I don't like it, looks cluttered. If I was in the US I had to have it though because of the video rentals....
