New Motorola XOOM LTE Nears Launch, Receives MAP Along with DROID3

It looks like the Motorola XOOM with 4G LTE (aka the Motorola XOOM LTE)  is about ready to launch, along with the DROID3.  Both devices have been added to Verizon’s MAP (minimum advertised price) list, which is one of the better indicators that a device is about to be released.  There is no telling if this is the mystery device that we first spotted from a VZW tablet commercial last week or just the same ol’ XOOM with an LTE radio in it.  We’re going with the latter.  Oh, and this is a pretty good sign that we should be hearing from Motorola about sending in our current non-4G XOOMs for upgrades.  (/Fingers crossed.)

The DROID3 on the other hand is still headed for July 7 until we hear otherwise.  It was just announced as the Milestone3 in China, so you’ve got to figure that Big Red and Moto are just looking for the perfect spot to make it official here in the U.S.

What do you guys think?  Finally ready for 4G in a XOOM?  Is this a newer version of the XOOM or just the current version with a 4G radio in it?
