Pocket-Lint: The HTC One X and One S are not the only pair debuting today, as the 3G + Wi-Fi versions of the Motorola XOOM 2 and Motorola XOOM 2 Media Edition go on sale.
Available from Carphone Warehouse, the main difference between the two models is the size of the screen with the XOOM 2 sporting a 10.1-inch HD widescreen display and the Media Edition a smaller 8.2-inch.
Both tablets are considerably lighter than the original Motorola XOOM and run on Android 3.2 Honeycomb.

Edit: Oh, this is the UK. Is ICS even out over there?
