I was waiting for this announcement to decide whether to get the Xoom or wait, but I didn't expect to have to wait this long. I'm also not a fan of the touchwiz ui, but I guess that can be changed.
Apparently the old 10.1 will still be launched in international markets, so maybe we (or aus) will get that.
