Rooted Motorola XOOMs to receive the LTE upgrade after all

Ma'am, can't wait to hear Gemini's take on this one:

Apple: "You screw with our phones, and you're breaking the law!"

Motorola and Google: "You're messing with our tablet? Come on in, we'll accommodate you anyway."

"What's so open about Android?" This is.

I would say that a friendly policy like this trumps ANY special something an Apple product supposedly has, and is easily worth paying a premium price for.

Sounds fare, indeed. ;-)

I thought there was a chance that the Xoom would be reverted back to factory stock settings anyway when you did the LTE upgrade, so if you're rooted and do the hardware upgrade, you may have to re-root.

This will be fine as long as the release the source to the public before the upgrade is available.
