Got my new Pad Pivot

It is pretty sweet and folds up nicely. Comes with a small bag for when it is not in use. It "sticks" to the tablet with a gel pad that stays sticky. You can see the dust cover on it for when it is not in use.

True SD card support is here

True SD card support is here... but only in Europe. :( I would love to know why on earth this is taking so long to come to the US build! I am still waiting on my 4G upgrade. That was supposed to be at the end of May. I guess it is the price you pay for having the 1st Android 3.x tablet.

Full Xoom ROM released (not from Motorola)

What does this mean for you? Basically a "pure" and "clean" install for you Xoom that allows for Hulu, USB Mass Storage, the SDcard and a host of other things that make the Xoom run as envisioned.

ROM Features:

• Packed with Tiamat 1.4.4 stock GPU. Flash overclocked GPU version is you wish.
• Rooted with SU and superuser, of course
• Desktop UA string, CRT Screen Off Animation, Call setting with SIP, and SMS capable enabled.
• Supercircle 100 point battery mod! thanks Jewremy
• Wifi Ad-Hoc mod enabled! thanks Kelvie
• USB Mass Storage Enabled. Use Dinomight's Mass Storage Tool or activity manager script.
• Init.d boot scripts enabled. Thanks Steady Hawkin!
• Busybox built in
• local.init.rc enabled in system/etc
• openVPN binary and script from CyanogenMod. untested but with tun.ko included, should win. Also grabbed Wireless Toolkit binary with built in symlinks from CyanogenMod
• added Quickboot, Estrongs File Explorer, and Flash Player hulufied brdizzled in data/apps. This was included so users coming from full wipe can be up and running. Feel free to remove from zip before flashing.

Xoom at 1.7 GHz now

Loaded the new Tiamat Version 1.4.4 today. Not too many upgraded features but some good ones.

• 1.7Ghz Overclock!
• All frequency steps built in. 1.2, 1.408, 1.504, 1.6, and 1.7!
• Two versions. Overclocked GPU and Stock GPU [request filled]
• USB Tether work for real now!
• Added Realtek 8150 USB Ethernet Dongle Module [request filled]
• Usb Mass Storage now stock in build. Visit Mass Storage Tool Thread by dinomight for implementation.

I was also glad to see the new SetCPU has been optimized for the tablet. The install was a no-brainer if you were already on the Tiamat kernel but see thread for details.

Xoom 2 - Coming soon?

Rounded corners is about the only thing we can see and there is little information on it but a Xoom 2 delivery may be closer than we think.
