I can't wait for the Atrix to come!!! I hope it gets rooted FAST like our US counterpart! I tried to talk a Bell rep into taking me to the Atrix training...I don't think it worked 
Will be more perssitent 
They may not look great, but I like the fact that they're already available. I generally use a gel case like these, so I'll buy one the same day I get the phone and keep the phone in there for protection. I bought a gel case for the Desire immediately too, and the case makes the power button much less sensitive so it doesn't keep turning the screen on by accident. My wife has a gel case on her Legend for the same reasons. On the Atrix the power button is recessed, so it shouldn't be an issue.
It likely won't matter as I doubt the bootloader will change much if at all for the Bell version. I'm not too concerned as I've never really bothered with rooting beyond the curiousity of it.weasel said:
ah that's what you meant, I don't really consider that pre-order. The instore rep said the same thing to me, 'give us your number and we'll call you when we get it in stock'. Well it seems that it's the 17
Hoping it's earlier, lol.Oh, I see your point. I'll change what I say from now on to reflect that, I'm sure you're not the only one who would get confused by something like that.ah that's what you meant, I don't really consider that pre-order.

I'm not sure if you know, but BB compresses your data so you end up using less for the same information compared to the iPhone or Android. Do you have the BB 500mb plan?
The Atrix is $599 off contract, $169 with a 3-year term and $50 data plan (expensive plans). The laptop dock is $499, and multimedia dock is $129. The laptop dock is way overpriced - it's just a screen and keyboard in a folding case.Thanks azazel, I've been trying to navigate Bell's site to find that contest!

The multimedia dock I'll probably get though as I want to use the phone connected to my HDTV along with a keyboard and mouse.
I entered the contest today too, but I also signed up for "information" when the Atrix page first went up online. I've not received anything from Bell from the first sign up, but when I signed up for the contest today I got a confirmation email.
I agree and I think it won't sell because of the high price. AT&T is selling it at a high price in the US too, which is a big mistake for something that is supposed to make phone and laptop technology one and the same. I'm guessing the laptop dock costs less than $100 to make since it's nothing more than a small screen and keyboard in a plastic case with a battery. I won't be buying it, that's for sure - I already have a nice laptop if I need one.

That's wonderful...except what good is the dock when we won't have the phone for another 2 weeks?
