There was a thread about this. But a few people thought it was a useless idea. I still like it.

I played with one in the bell store, pentile matrix screen looks terrible. has little dots everywhere.
also the laptop dock cost the same as a netbook
on paper the phone seems awesome but having actually seen it i'm not impressed at all. doesn't seem very durable either as the demo already had a broken screen

using one right now.
my first android, it is quite fast. the webtop thing is pretty cool too, if you don't have a keyboard you can use the screen of the phone as mouse + keyboard. Would be even better if it can be use without docks

It shouldn't have problems. I haven't read up on it. I think you need root access also.

even with out the lapdock/multimedia dock the phone is pretty sweet
the phone comes with a hdmi cable to connect to your tv.
playing games, watching movies/video and playing music is better on your 40 inch.

Motorola and Sony are too locked down to provide the Android experience. This is the single biggest reason why Android is so confusing for many. Its also not an easy system to teach and sell. Go ask 10 random sales staff in any provider to explain to you the benefits of Android and you will see.
The Nexus S and Nexus One provides teh user with what Android is set out to be. The Samsung Galaxy line and HTC Sense represent Android very well too.
MotoBlur on the Atrix or any moto android device is garbage. and SONY TIMESCAPE and MEDIASCAPE is just plain terrible

Hopefully the Atrix will have an unlockable bootloader right from Moto. The Xoom does | |

I like HTC sense and my keypad.... but it's pretty much close to free for me on Atrix.... I can wait for the next phone coming out in Bell, but it better be a good one.

The current Blur set up is pretty much exactly the same as the Samsung. (Samsung is still better) So in a round about way I am disagreeing with you. Motorola Blur is still not perfect but close; defienetly not garbage.
Also, if the reps who is trained to sell phones and can't explain the benifts of Android, they need to be fired. It is not too complex to explain to customers.
I have heard and corrected many reps who try to sell the benifits in techincal terms. Majority of customers have no idea what "open source" is. The rep instead should be explaining that the app developers are more free to create apps. THUS the CLIENT has more choice in app selection.
Android in the future will be the bread and butter of the cell phone markets.
