Xoom has a better rear facing camera
Even though both products now have front and rear facing cameras, none of them are very good. The camera on the front of the Xoom is really useful only for videoconferencing and even then the picture can be grainy, and the fixed focus lens can result in blurry images. However, Xoom's rear facing camera is a 5-megapixel device that delivers reasonably clear images. This is better than the camera on the iPad 2, which produces low resolution grainy images no matter which camera you're using, front or back.
