Thanks for that info about the Inspire battery issue...kind of a bummer. I knew it was super tiny (1250 mah) but I didn't realize I can't just upgrade the battery. Guess that's not the phone for me either.
I don't necessarily need unlimited data, it's just the fact that I've always had it, and if possible, would like to keep it. If not possible, then it's not possible. But it should've been possible with the Atrix + Laptop Dock, until they decided to throw down a ridiculous tethering charge on top of it. I just think that's so stupid. By the way, though - I go to a community college, and I commute there...so I'm not always there. Not to mention the school's wifi sucks, but that's another story. I still have wifi at home as well.
Anyway, I guess I will just have to decide somehow if I want the Atrix just as the Atrix by itself, or go another phone route. I know it's still a cool phone, but aesthetically I still prefer HTC phones (hardware looks) over Motorola's, so without the laptock dock (I was going to use it for college, actually) I have a cool phone inside an okay-looking outside. Add to that people have claimed Android isn't optimized as an OS for dual-core phones yet, unless I do a ton of hardcore gaming on it, and it's looking more and more like the Atrix may not be for me :\ But I was soooo set on it before all this pricing + tetheting!!
