Google Cr-48 or Xoom? - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm torn between buying a Cr-48 off ebay or just getting a Xoom. I really like both but the Cr-48 is about half the price. Any suggestions?

How much is the Cr-48 ebay?

From what I've seen it's about $300 to $350

I think it boils down to do you prefer a laptop by google or an android tablet. And have you checked out the g-slate I'm hearing that's a pretty nice tablet as well.

I've thought of that as well but it's $600 on contract, and I can get the xoom off contract for the same price

Off contract is the only way to fly lol. But seems like your leaning towards a tablet. I usually just buy what I like but in this market when saving your monies count. I'm breaking down and going to stores and just trying out a lot of products hands on to see if I like them as much as I do in my mind. You can always sale your something in your mind but not always the case in person.

I've checked out the xoom at the Verizon store, its pretty awesome. Too bad I can't do the same for the cr-48 lol.

Yeah the Cr-48 is an risk factor when it comes to not knowing how it runs. Maybe someone got one on craigslist in your area and willing to let you test drive it in a public place. Worth a shot.

Good suggestion, I'll check it out now

I sold my CR-48. It just lacks any key features.
Use google chrome on your PC. Everything you can do in there, is what the laptop can do.
same web "apps" Same gmail.
Its just chrome browser instead of an OS.

How much did you sell it for?

How much?
Sent from my VM670 using XDA Premium App
I have one that doesn't have a scratch or blemish on it. I've used it for almost 2 months with no reboots, minimal screen bleed and good battery. All in all, I would say its in perfect condition and the only way you can tell its been used is by looking closely at the aluminium strip on the battery cover. Has a few tiny surface scratches.
No trades, make me a offer. Ill take pics if you want to see it.

Tablet question

What tablet has the most Roms or biggest community? Amongst tablets I have EVO 3d rooted so I assume rooting a tablet is not much different, or am I mistaken?

Oh what tablet would you all suggest ?

Wait and get the Transformer Prime. If you must get one now get one of the Galaxy Tab variants.
I would say iPad 2
Sorry but nothing Apple for me except an itouch
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Apple is too expensive. For no reasons. Almost all programs in market are not free. So why you need Apple if you can have android and do almost everything for free and have better support (it is my opinion on support)
I got the new nook for my first tablet. It doesn'tcome out till the 14th though... I figure for 250 if I dontlike it my mother won't need a kindle fire lol

Nexus 7

Just wondering if anyone else here has pre ordered or plans to get one...
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I have been debating this since the announcement. It's a tough choice. I have a Nook Color and it's great! The lack of SD card is the only reason I'm hesitating. I don't think I could bear to have to use Google's cloud services for all my storage needs. I may still get it anyways cause I love the specs. IDK
No plans to get one for me since I have the gtab and I love it
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda app-developers app
I pre ordered on the 3rd and the wait is killing me. There's an entertaining thread in the N7 forum where everyone's expressing the same thing. None of us can wait.

I'm thinking about it but like someone else said no sdcard is kind of lame. I don't mind the cloud thing but come on no SD card?

my point exactly...
I'm excited about this because I don't allow myself many "upgrades" in technology. Well, really, life doesn't allow it. I just suck it up and comply. But considering the price tag, the specs are awesome. Of course, I'd like a transformer...but I also want the next nexus phone, so something had to give.
I don't think galaxy nexus will get successor this year.

G nex should because they always release them around holiday season.

well similar specs - both use the same cpu, which is pretty good, but the tf300 has an SD slot and an optional keyboard dock. I think the TF300 is the best deal on a 10 inch tablet right now, but at $379, it's still quite a bit more than the Nexus 7.
The nexus7 is reall nice, and at $200-$250 is VERY tempting
Waiting for Kindle Fire 2
I've heard that as late as August Amazon will announce the Kindle Fire 2 which should be comparable to the Nexus or better.

Bestest Place to buy Devices?

I have seen people mention a site called swappa. Is this the best one. I have been looking for a tablet and don't trust huge sites like eBay. Is swappa a good choice? Asking fellow users.

I have used them to buy. They get my vote.

Read into them. Honestly it'd be my first choice if I'm buying outright. Read all their tos and whatnot. As far as I know only clean esn's are on there. I have read into it and it definitely is a lot better of an option than eBay in my opinion

I bought and sold on swappa. But be cautious of sketchyness. My first one I bought turned out to be a scam and my money ended up I'm China. The whole thing was so sketchy. But PayPal is awesome and got my money back in a couple of days.

I vote swappa. Simple as hell to use.

Here on the US west coast, Craigslist is king for used phones.
For safe transactions and reduced prices, you can check out the "outlet" from the company. A lot of companies sell the slightly used tablets and refurbs on their outlet's website.

actually what i always do is, shop around on the site and see whats available. then i call them prior to me checking out to confirm everything and they usually give anywhere from a 10-15% discount.
KEEP IN MIND:
i have a business account
i have 4 lines under my name. All 4 are smart phones
and i get 21% discount on all accessories because of the company i work for.

Going pice of used Lg2x

With my HTC One activism today, I'll be getting rid of my G2X.
What's the going price?
I see 'em on eBay for anywhere from $110 to $160. Got mine a while back for $115.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I saw most g2xs going in the mid to low 100's depends what condition your phone is in and what extras it comes with. Personally I'd just keep it and use it as an mp3 or sell it to a sibling to some clueless fool
$50-100 depending on condition.
