A leaked series of documents, purportedly some kind of instructions for the users of the upcoming Motorola Xoom—which I will call a user’s guide—is entirely unremarkable save for the information it doesn’t contain.

Mainly, the Xoom user’s guide doesn’t mention the locked down wifi that’s quickly become an Achilles Heel for this well-received Android tablet.

To activate WiFi functionality on this device, a minimum of one month data subscription is required.

Well, that and the $800 price tag. But, hey, this user’s manual business doesn’t mention that gross wifi business at all! [Droid Life via BGR]
