I don't understand why anyone would call the XOOM heavy in comparison to the iPad. The comparisons I have seen list them both at 730g.

I have them both, and I would say that the XOOM is more comfortable to hold. The two big factors are the texture of the back and the fact that I so often hold them in portrait mode. The widescreen form factor of the XOOM makes it easier to handle in portrait mode.
