New Poll: What will you buy now (with the confirmed prices)?
- Thread starter btgrave

I think I originally voted "just atrix", but I'm starting to lean toward the inspire. I'll have actually hold and play with it before I decide. If not the Inspire...well, I can't say what my 3rd option is...at least not on an Android forum
+1.. sort of. I did vote Atrix only... but honestly I'm really thinking I'll pickup an Inspire and see if the battery can last a day. If it does, I'll make the call once I see the Atrix in stores and if I'm not totally sucked in by Sense.... well...
+2. I'm gonna mess around with the Inspire when it gets to my local store and see how I like it.
Why do none of these polls include the car dock?! I will be getting the car dock and the charging dock at first. The phone is still awesome...but AT&T is crazy if they think people are going to jump at the chance to pay such high prices to have the laptop dock.
I hope AT&T sees this poll - very few are interested in their high priced docks. This pricing scam is going to be a major fail for them.
AT&T couldn't care less. If they did they never would have priced it as such or put the rediculous tethering stipulation on it. Not a wise move IMHO and it will affect their sales to a certain degree but then again, read my first sentence.
I'm very curious about the prices of the "Standard Dock" and the car dock. I'm also only interested in these. Since they haven't released any prices yet, maybe they're equally pricey. I'm wagering that the vehicle dock is $75. If that's the case, I'll wait for something after market or get a different phone. I have always liked Motorola, and I understand that quality costs money, but there is a fine line between paying for quality and overpaying.
At the end of the day, this is a device that I'll use for a maximum of 2 years. I could very well upgrade early and only have it for 18 months. I'm not going to pay the kind of money they're asking for something that I know for a fact I'll only have for that short amount of time. Just isn't going to happen. The most I've paid for a vehicle mount is like $25. That was for the iGrip, which I was able to use for the BB 9000, then buy the $10 replacement holder for the 9700 and continue to use the same mount.
edit: I found this online, which seems to be actually decent pricing: Search
I know we are just a small handful of AT&T customers on these forums, but nothing ever changes until something changes.
I recently posted a letter I sent to ATT on here this morning (My Email to AT&T re:Atrix). We all need to contact AT&T and let them know our true feelings on what they are doing. Bucket responses or not, if we tell them enough maybe they will eventually listen. It's easy to ignore 2-3 inquiries but you start getting a couple dozen (hundreds???) someone may have to stand up and listen.
OK, I've stepped off the soap box and now yield the floor to whoever wants it

The problem is AT&T's lack of proactivity. They should have had solid Androids alongside the Jesus Phone (aka iPhone) for years. At&t could have totally one-uped verizon with the atrix, but by putting these crazy restriction, prices, and bloatware, they are just as bad as any other carrier. If they wanted to remain competitive they should have made their android customers feel as welcome as their apple costumers instead they F-ed us in the @$$ with all this B$.
Look back to AT&T's iPad launch, remember the "revolutionary" data plan the iPad got? Why do we not get anything like this? AT&T will not accept us until they realize our great worth and our determination to use our android phones on the best GSM network in America.
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.

Have you seen the Inspire? That's what I'm going to on Valentine's Day. I'm coming from a BB too.

I might wait to see if Amazon or elsewhere offer cheaper or the same w/o rebate. $300 up front is steep for me. Let's hope Amazon gets it up again for $150. THAT I can work with.
Agreed. Who knows...they might even have the laptop dock for much cheaper. I think I am going to keep my eyes out for a better price. If They did a similar discount (25% off the phone price) on the docks - that would be the way to go.
I am definitely going to get the phone...it is the docks that are in question.
