Motorola Xoom To Get Software Update

Motorola and partner Verizon Wireless are putting the final touches on a significant system update for the Motorola Xoom. Though the companies haven't officially announced when it will be released, the changelog is live on Verizon's support site. If you're hoping for a major feature upgrade, don't get your hopes up. This new software aims at fixing a lot of bugs and tying off a few loose ends.

Enterprise IT departments will be happy to see some of the changes being applied to the Xoom's Web browsing and data access capabilities. Some of the improvements include added proxy support when connecting to Wi-Fi networks; support for SSL data transfers; support for WPA pre-shared key pass-phrases when using the device as a mobile hotspot; and support for Google's Widevine DRM and HDCP. These will all contribute to making the Xoom a bit more secure for enterprise use.
