Don't force the Xoom to use hdpi.  You will be inconsistent with every other
app, all of which are using the Xoom's correct density which is mdpi.

Why do you want to do this?

As I've said, Galaxy Tab made a design decision to use a larger density and
thus have a blown up UI.  Again use the density the device reports so you
are consistent with the UI in the rest of the device.

Trying to play games like this is only going to lead to pain.  Use the
density the device reports.
