He he .. you guys don't get his sense of humor (which he has plenty of .. with a dose of sarcasm)
Here we have a pic of all three of which the Xoom has been said to be SOooo inferior with the screen compared to the iPad... Well, in this pic, it's looking pretty good! Hey, Bob .. ya need to stick this in your sig line and post it all over those Xoom bashing threadsThat would make my day
It got so bad with all of the Xoom vs iPad = Xoom screen sucks, the mods made a different forum to get the clutter out of here.

I still don't get the joke.....it's just a screenshot. Even the perspectives are wrong as the iPad 2 is shown much larger.
And the screen quality on the Xoom is inferior to the iPad, lower resolution or not. Color saturation, brightness, focus, take your pick, easy to see side by side. I have them both sitting side by side on my desk right now, be happy to post a real screen shot. Call me a troll, live in denial, it's not going to change that fact.
Edit: Posting a real pic anyway:

This was taken with my iPhone 4 (the irony!) and I scaled it down with photoshop so it wasn't too huge; don't bother trying to pick out tiny details is what I mean as the pic as a whole is slightly out of focus.
Note the difference in brightness and color hue. That's with brightness at max on both - I did that to be fair, as the Xoom tends to default to a "much" lower setting than the iPad when set to auto, which also doesn't help.
Maybe this picture doesn't do any good and you can't tell from it so you will have to take my word for it - in person, live, the difference is night and day to anyone who looks at them like this, on any web page, in any application.

What I find humorous is the Xoom is shown in landscape mode, while the other iPad* tablets are not... thus making them appears to be larger when in fact the Xoom is actually larger. Photoshop and tea anyone?

Speaking for myself ... my naked eyes (kinda .. have to use bifocals @ my age) just don't give a crap about specs comparisons iPad vs Xoom. They just see what they see and they are not seeing a heck of a lot of differences in-spite of reported specs.
It's shown in landscape because that's how almost every marketing image of it is taken, which is where all those images were cribbed from.
And with good reason - the Xoom is much better in landscape than it is in portrait for most applications, certainly while holding it.
