The receipt guys. From experience I don't think other stores will match this low so I think your best bet is to come into store and get it http://upload.ozbargain.com/2012/01/03/7516_img_20120104_110...
Road Warrior on 04/01/2012 - 10:09 ¶$399 is a pretty good price, it was only a few weeks ago the standard wifi-only version was this price.
+1 votephotonaturally on 04/01/2012 - 10:36 ¶the wifi version was $299 xmas special from Retrovision. the 3g version was $399 same price so its a good deal.

dwi was selling at this price a few weeks ago.
johndoe123 on 04/01/2012 - 10:34 ¶crap. their system is very bad. I got other customer name too "Gunadi Setiawan"
+1 votephotonaturally on 04/01/2012 - 10:38 ¶good deal. same deal as retrovision over xmas. Good deal then and good deal now.
would you pay $100 extra for the 3g version? I would pay $349 for the 3g but $399 prob not, when I can use my phone as a personal wifi hotspot.

nicksnoobie on 04/01/2012 - 11:08 ¶Yeah for iPad. To get the 3G version, it costs heaps more. So tethering is an alternative for those who don't want to spend more money on it.

$1 less here. and free delivery australia-wide.

odd…their email sent out was $398 including free delivery. i can bounce it to whoever wants it.

I presume you need to be a member of their "members club" (which I think is free)

lullaby007 on 04/01/2012 - 19:57 ¶Called JB-HIFI in Brisbane City for a price match. Was told to print out the web page and they'll match it. When I got there, they denied and said they couldn't do it. what a freaking liar!
johndoe123 on 04/01/2012 - 20:14 ¶same here. was told that they were unable to price match as it is way below cost. the salesman also said that the receipt shown to them is grey import. is the onlinecomputer stock grey import? I can see GST on the receipt
lullaby007 on 04/01/2012 - 20:29 ¶GST not necessarily means oz stock. but I called online computer and the sales assistant did confirm theirs are australian stock…

Hmmm. Be careful on the specs. The website didn't advise what frequency it is. If it's indeed Australian stock and from Australia then it'll be 850MHz (Telstra NextG) capable and not just say HSDPA.
It's a great price regardless! But I have the feeling it could be a grey import as I haven't seen any other retailer massively reduce their pricing.

+1 votelullaby007 on 05/01/2012 - 09:55 ¶called vodafone. they do have it for $399. you can simply go to any vodafone store and buy it outright. It is software lock which can be unlocked. Then it's up to you to bargain with the store for a better price. Good luck
+1 vote32GB WiFi Xoom I bought from HN just before Xmas came with 3.2 pre-installed.
If this has 3.1 installed, it should be upgradeable to 3.2 over the air for free.
Also Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) is currently being tested by Motorola, and should be downloadable for the Xoom over the air in the next 6 to 8 weeks… one of the main reasons why I bought this.

agentsmithy on 06/01/2012 - 12:23 ¶Nope. Tried but no luck. Good luck if you can save the extra $20 though…

It was not a special. It was Vodafone at Macquarie Centre. The chick there said that they can do 379 or around that price if I wanted to buy it. She asked me first if I was a Vodafone customer.
I don't think you can see the outright price or the 12 months contract plans. They are only sold in store.
I think this is a really good price though. I bought my Wifi only not long ago for 350 from DWI.
K.
+1 voteVoda hotline support cant tell if it is lock and how much is the unlock fees. Trying using voda unlock website by the salespeople in the shop using the imei etc also no success. Macquarie ctr Jbhifi has the 32gb NON 3g listed for $600 Over. When i asked if the price is right, he said yes. Then i said voda selling for cheap $399. He then checked his device, "ow.. it is down to $580 now". you may want to get it from voda". I walked out.

JB dropped the price over night, wifi version is now $396 and 3G $597. Yesterdays was still $644, anyway they had no problem matching $399 and also discounted the portfolio case, so got from JB instead. Also there's no credit card surcharge, better that way to get an extra year of purchase warranty covered by the card.

These guys in Adelaide, allbiz matched $399 for me when I emailed and even got a 3gig 3G data vodophone sim for $29. They had stock. http://allbizsupplies.biz/layouts/whats_new_content/NB-M-XOO...
ashley1969 on 14/01/2012 - 15:11 ¶I believe the WiFi version of these are now in process of getting Ice Cream Sandwich at moment. Should be arriving on my Acer 3g version soon too.
