This Better Not Be The Xoom 2

The Internet is abuzz with chatter that this, the tablet in the pic above, is the Xoom 2. It's featured in a new Verizon ad (embedded after the link) and while it lacks any branding besides the large Verizon logo on the back, it at least looks like a Xoom. It has the same matte black color scheme, contured back and, as Droid-Life points out, the same unique speaker found on the Xoom. But please-oh-please do not let it be the Xoom 2. Or rather, please don't release the damn thing anytime soon. The original Xoom started slowly rolling out back in late February. It was supposed to be the ultimate Honeycomb tablet -- a sort of Nexus product. But it isn't and the sales reflected that. It's stupid expensive, hard to hold, lacks a USB host port and functional microSD card slot. Then there's Honeycomb, which isn't exactly fully cooked even now thanks to the lack of apps. It only makes sense that Verizon and Motorola would want to quickly recover from the Xoom disaster, but launching the Xoom 2 anytime soon would do just the opposite.
