Motorola Xoom 4G Upgrades Underway?

It seems that Motorola is ready to upgrade Xoom users to be able to use their devices on Verizon’s 4G LTE networks thanks to a tip sent to Phandroid, it looks like Motorola is requesting that their Xoom users send back the device to them to provide the necessary hardware modifications to make it compatible with 4G connections. This is a first we’ve heard of such a thing occurring but either way it’s good to know that customers won’t have to buy a new device just to be able to connect to the 4G networks.

The email sent by Motorola reads as follows:

Thank you for submitting your Motorola Xoom for the 4G LTE upgrade. You should have recently received a package in the mail with instructions and materials for returning your device for the upgrade.
