Motorola expecting to ship 800 000 XOOM tablets in Q1?

According to unnamed sources, supply chain leaks point to the fact that Motorola is expecting to ship between 700 000 and 800 000 units of its dual-core XOOM tablet in Q1 2011. These insiders also point that the tablet is set to come in four different colors.

The rumour also alleges that Honeycomb is optimized for 7-inch and 10-inch tablets, and that Samsung and Motorola are Google's partners of choice when it comes to tabs, with LG and HTC "following behind".

As with other rumours, it's impossible for us to verify the information, and we're not particularly sure that these numbers are genuine. Time will reveal, though, and what seems certain is that the XOOM tablet is coming to Verizon in Q1.
