Motorola XOOM...

Yeah, motorolla used to make great cell phones but after their razor cell phones phase everything went down hill from there.
A little overpriced but a good device. I was one of the developers to get one free as beta (Motodev network) and use it every day for testing and debugging. It uses a special version of Android for tablets. The only problem is the battery but is a good device, worth to be compared to ipad.
Go with the Asus Transformer, really unique and cool good specs etc.

as much as I want android to work, the performance on all android devices is just fucking god awful. Anything that legs 20 seconds after initial unboxing is just plain fail.
You're not going to find that thing anywhere. I've been trying to buy it for over a month now.

And this
You must not have been trying that hard

Thinking about pulling the trigger on one myself.
Wait, Just remembered that I haven't opened my ipad in like 2 months? Can't go anywhere without my laptop anyway.
are those fucking things popular? I own dellstreak.org but never did shit with it i also own dellphones.org
You know dell streak is ~370,000 exact monthly searches with an CPC of £7.90 according to google traffic estimator, right?
I think dell aggressively protects their trademarks, but it's definitely worth looking into.
I like my xoom but I'm much more of an android fan over a apple fan.
Then again I've only had it about a week so far, but enjoyin' it.

I had the Xoom for about 2 weeks, then returned it for the Asus Transformer. For those having trouble getting the device, I recommend tracking the product here: ASUS Tablet PC In Stock Tracker - Transformer TF101 - NowInStock.net (not my site). You can get email/sms alerts when it comes in, which is how I managed to get the Tablet, Keyboard, and sleeve all within a week.
As for the Xoom, I really didn't have any serious complaints about it except:
1. The SD slot didn't work. They knew this when they shipped it, kept promising a firmware upgrade to make it work. No idea if this even works now.
2. The 4g/LTE upgrade thing. You will basically have to send it in if you want this, which to my knowledge is also not available yet.
Since you mentioned traveling, I don't believe the 3g (and LTE upgrade when it happens) will work while traveling, so you might as well get the Transformer (although there is a Wifi Xoom) since the keyboard dock is shit hot.
