Government and business users might be the first to get the LTE upgrade to the Motorola XOOM
When the Motorola XOOM hit the market back in February, its 4G capabilities were among its top selling points. However, there was a catch – users had to sit tight and wait until the tablet was ready to receive its LTE radio implant, which was promised to happen at some point in the second quarter of the year.
Well, the month of August is nearing its end, and to the disappointment of all early Motorola XOOM adopters, the LTE upgrade for the tablet has yet to become reality. Fortunately, it appears like the process may finally begin in September so the long wait may be finally coming to an end. Nevertheless, XOOM owners should not get too excited about this just yet as the first to get their tablet upgraded to 4G LTE may be business and government users.

If you happen to be a Motorola XOOM owner yourself, feel free to check out the email and become familiar with the upgrade procedure. Once the initial batch of 4G upgrades is out, it probably would not be long until you are given the chance to get your tablet running on Verizon's LTE airwaves as well.
