Will The Motorola Tablet Be Called The Xoom?

I’m totally down with the new MotoTab being called the Buzz but PocketNow has discovered that Motorola recently registered “Xoom” as an official trademark, a move that points to rich usage of the name and term in their products.

We’ve heard a few things about the new Motorola tablet including information that it could run on Verizon’s network and include a 10-inch screen. The Xoom name could appear in conjunction with this launch.
