I had seen that before as well, however it is nice to see Moto put it in writing, as opposed to just a CES promise...

Didn't know that. Sorry.

Hmm, I hadn't seen that before officially in writing. Good to know. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for posting that. I am considering the Atrix and the 720p wasn't a big deal for me but I am glad to see that it may get updated. Although I never believe any promises about updates, if one does get released I just consider it a bonus. Regardless, the phone is fine with me as it is.

Agreed. This phone sounds amazing right out of the box.

I'd rather have good 720 than overcompressed 1080. It will be interesting to see how it actually looks. Was it the LG phone that had samples posted? They looked ok to me so I guess it is possible.

I honestly don't think I'll be doing much recording with it so 720p or 1080p is kind of a moot point for me. Support speaks volumes to me.

I'm in the opposite boat...I'm looking forward to the high quality video recording. Hopefully it will at least match up to the i4...say what you will about Apple they certainly did a good job with the camera on the i4. I had thought about investing in a separate video camera, but if the atrix meets expectations, I don't think I will.

Yea, who wouldn't want a free update down the line that would make the best phone ever one step better, i dont understand the all the complaining about this.

I didn't see it so much as complaining, just for some people it's not a deal breaker so they aren't too concerned about.

Me? I'm heading on vacation end of Feb so I'm looking forward to vacation video in 720p

The complaining allegation was't directed at you it was directed at the first page comments like: "I'd rather have good 720 than overcompressed 1080"
