I know. Same price for phone+laptop dock and laptop dock separately. Motorola is trying to force ppl to buy the laptop dock.

Well that sucks. I might as well wait for the HTC dual-core that is suppose to come out in May. Anyone else think that after MWC many people will wait for Samsung and HTC dual cores, they had the buzz back at CES and didn't capitalize on it quick and now with verizon Iphone and other manufactures releasing dual cores soon, they will not have the same impact as they might have had.

If it's $499 for phone and laptop on contract, I wonder what it will be off contract. Why the hell would that thing be some frickin expensive?

Sounds so overpriced that I don't believe the article.

That's what I was thinking too.

Gonna be a long month my friend. Good thing February is short and it's not leap year. Do they normally take pre-orders that far in advance of a phones launch? iPhone excluded. It seems odd to me.

Just get the Inspire on Feb 13 and play around with that then return it and get the Atrix when it's released.

That thought has definitely crossed my mind...however I'm on vacation in FL on March 6, so I don't know how that would work, returning it to a store I didn't purchase in.

Funny how only WSJ is reporting this so called ATT announcement.

True...how many times did they "scoop" the verizon iphone announcement before they got it right?
On the other hand, with the slew of training sessions that went on yesterday, info leaking out wouldn't surprise me. :'(
