  • Looks like our Managing Editor and Android Correspondent Nicolas Wiggins just was OTA’d ICS (Android 4.0.3) to his Motorola XOOM. I however have not been so lucky. Start hitting that “check for updates” button. We’ll be back with our first impressions soon. NOTE: Nicolas is not a member of the Motorola Users Forum which leads us to believe the first wave of ICS is rolling out on a large scale. All Images Credit To: Nicolas Wiggins. Update: We decided to ask Motorola what the deal was. So far now official reply, but some of their fans are commenting in. Update 2: My tablet finally was able to pull the ICS...

  • As many gamers know, today is the day that Microsoft rolls out the new Dashboard. Well, it’s causing a few problems. I went to sign into Xbox Live pre-update and got “unable to connect”, I went to “Test Connection” and was prompted to download the update. I was able to download and install the update, but am unable to sign in. More and more repports of this problem are coming in (as well as a rumor the the entire network is down, though that is only a rumor). We will keep you up to date with information as we get it.

  • The Lapdock was something Motorola first showed off to us back when the Atrix was announced, it also launched with the Droid Bionic. It was not really a great device. Not Motorola has decided to try again, this time adding a 14 inch more MacBook Pro style Lapdock 500 Pro to the line. The 500 has a much larger track pad, what appears to be a bettery keyboard and of course a larger 14 inch screen. No word on pricing yet. ~Zephaniah Washington. AGRS Editor-in-chief.

  • A visionary. Someone who has a goal, someone who see’s the possibilities that no one else can see, someone who has the drive and determination to make it happen. Today we have lost one of the greatest we’ve ever had. Thank you Steve Jobs, our memories are with you and our prayers are with your family and friends. Rest in peace. Sincerely, the AGRS Staff: Zephaniah Washington, Jake Root, Nicolas Wiggins. ~Zephaniah Washington Jobs inspired me to write, inspired me to look at things in a whole new way, inspired me to start AGRS. I am forever grateful. I am sad that I never got to meet him in person.

  • Just a few days after the last update (HTK55D), the WiFi only edition of the Motorola XOOM is receiving another update, this time to HTK75D. This update brings us the all new Android Market, scaled to better fit the tablet form factor. We are not sure what else it brings, but everything is running smoothly. To manually update go to Settings> About tablet> System updates. More shots of the new market after the break.
