Who would I call ? Well I live in Florida however am a Brit so family and friends in Europe would be top of the list.

I have given up and returned to my 9700. Don't get me wrong I love the Atrix and think it is a fantastic device. I love the screen, the apps available, the speed everything about it except the reliability of email. I use it all the time for communication with my family. I live in the US and...

I wouldn't have noticed but thought I would check my data usage. I have been using a 9700 for a while and used the heck out if it but never got about 200 meg for a month. Been using the Atrix for a week and over 200 already. Most of my data usage is at home so was wondering why. Think I have...

Have to say I have been impressed with my first Android experience. No build issues or OS issues at all. The phone is easily rooted and the rest there is only one question mark really. The wifi signal just seems to drop out on me for no reason that I can ascertain. Using the phone in the same...

Not totally convinced I have left my 9700 yet and actually pretty sure I will be going back once QNX kicks in but I have had a Atrix for 4 days so..... Did you sync with Outlook on your BB and if so, are you syncing with Outlook on your Atrix? Does that work well for you? I have been using...

Can't say but do know next time I am going to wait a while before installing !

So about 24 hours in and the Atrix is now rooted. Have to say that the XDA Developers are awesome ! Took me a little over 2 hours and that was because I had to flash the phone back to 1.26 as I upgraded yesterday as soon as I had it. There is nothing to be scared of just take your time and...

Same here. Ok getting used to a touch screen again and watching the battery disappear is odd but no real issues with the phone itself. Not been exactly blown away though either. Giving it a few days with the stock I install before I start playing.

I know that this isn't comparing apples and apples, excuse that expression, but how is the Atrix doing for pop email and messaging ? I depend on my 9700 for reliable fast email and messaging so while I would expect the Atrix to be slower it is the consistency I am interested in. Never actually...

Think I am going to take a visit to AT&T. Just checked my account online and contract free price is $239. Get some discount due to where I work but can't ignore that price ! Will use the upcoming contract for a Atrix or be patient and see about a iPhone 5.

I was definitely going to get the Atrix and laptop dock but that tethering nonsense has killed that dead. Now I am going to wait and see what comes out of the MWC this month. If nothing floats my boat I may revisit it or just wait for the new Berry's that I still have half and eye on.

Precisely my thought. Yes I could have swallowed the $500, after all buy an off contract phone and you are in that ballpark'ish. I t's that alleged tethering fine from AT&T, sorry that should be fee, that I just cannot justify. MWC coming soon no doubt something Android will grab my attention...

I was probably still am considering getting the Atrix as my first Android device to see if it can reliably replace my beloved Berry however........ I was considering the laptop dock but the absurdity of paying a tethering charge to use a battery and screen has written that off. I am not due an...

That is what I was thinking. Usually too busy at work to do much of anything other than check a few bits and bobs but as said I am aware that my usage will change. Had a couple of iPhones in the past and briefly my usage increased but soon got bored of the games etc and could have used the 2...

As the Captivate is the only high end Android on AT&T at the moment thought I would ask you about data usage. Currently have a B9700 and the upcoming Atrix has me thinking. Now while I will agree that there are limitations with the Berry it does a couple of things really well such as using a...
