Motorola DROID Xyboard headed to Verizon

The Motorola DROID Xyboard tablets were leaked earlier this week, and now a new picture of the tablet has surfaced. This time we get to see the back of the device and if you look carefully, you can spot the Verizon and 4G LTE logos engraved on the metal backplate of the tablet. Seeing that the first Motorola tablet, the XOOM was released with Big Red, the Xyboard tablet being sold by the same carrier isn’t much of a surprise. Neither is the presence of 4G LTE radios onboard.

What’s interesting is the name of the tablets Xyboard has been confirmed, with an official logo also present in the screenshot. Perhaps it’s to distance the company from the XOOM which didn’t do too well? Well, the Verizon DROID Xyboard is expected to be officially announced soon so stay tuned.
