Meet the Motorola XOOM™ Family Edition

October 17, 2011 : BY Motorola

Fun is here. Just add family. The Motorola XOOM™ Family Edition is the first tablet for kids of all ages. It has Kid Zone™ by Zoodles™ that locks the home button and allows your kids to only access the content you deem acceptable like educational games and movies.  That means your dear little ones can watch TV shows and thousands of movies, but they won’t be accidentally sending nonsensical emails to your boss.

But it’s not just for the kiddos. Once they’re tucked into bed, leave Kid Zone™ and knock out a few emails or whip up a presentation on Quickoffice™.

For $399, it’s an affordable way to bring everyone together into the twenty-first century and it’s available now at Best Buy.

Android and Motorola: A perfect match

October 5, 2011 : BY Motorola

Check your email. Check the stock market. Check in on Facebook®. Android™ lets you do it all — quickly. But what is Android, really?

Android is an open-source software platform. Open source means any developer can access the platform to customize it and to create apps. When you own a smartphone or tablet that runs on an open platform, it means there are more possibilities for you to tailor your device to fit your life.

We use Android on our smartphones and tablets, and so do many other device manufacturers.

But we think you’ll like Android on Motorola better. Why? We’ve customized the platform in several ways, to optimize your battery life and deliver seamless upgrades. Plus, everything runs  on our powerful processors. With the Android Market just one touch away, you have easy access to hundreds of thousands of apps.

Yes, Motorola brings to you some of the fastest, most reliable Android-powered smartphones and tablets on the market. See for yourself. Explore our Android smartphones and our Android tablets
