In any case, it does exist and appears to be a big improvement.

Motorola Atrix 4G - xda-developers
I cannot get this update.
Did everything mentioned above. Turned off wifi, turned off phone. Turned on phone, turned on Wifi. Nothing, phone says it is up to date. WTH!
Is there some pecking order as to who gets the update first??
So has anyone got this update through the phone via the settings/about phone? When do we expect this to come via the phone update?
artbytes: please read my post. That method no longer works as of 11amCST.
Currently flashing the update, RSD Lite is my best friend when it comes to this phoneThe update was pulled from Motorola because no NDA was signed. Until that happens you will have to wait. Lucky to those who got it early, if your like me, you can use the link above + RSD Lite and get it (and yes it is the official update before it was pulled, not just the work around)
