So most people aren't too happy with Motoblur - anything stopping you from using Launcher Pro Plus? Wouldn't that get ridofMotoblur? Newbie questions, sorry!

The higher-end BBs are legendary for their radios so that's to be expected. Shouldn't be drastic though. I am finding that this phone is flipping around in areas where my iPhone 4 stays rock solid on 3G.

Motorola is also known for having good RF performance.
Don't forget the iPhone does not show what kind of 3G signal it has acquired. It shows "3G" for all connections except for EDGE and GPRS. So while the iPhone signal may infact be bouncing around, you just won't see it. It's also slower to show a drop to EDGE and back again than most other phones.

This is good to hear.
What about MotoBlur? Is there a way around it, or are users playing along with it?

First impressions:
Solid, well put together, plastic is fine.
The display is fantastic. Immediately I could tell the difference in small text/details vs. the Captivate. Pentile schmentile
VERY fast out of the box.
I'm only on WiFi right now, so I'll have to update on my cell performance.
[edit]
Connected to Google, accounts/contacts/etc., are all sync'ed up

One of the reasons I'm interested in the Atrix is the size - it's about the same size as my Desire but with a lot more power and a slightly bigger screen. Phone Arena has a tool to show sizes, just add the phones you want to see how they compare:

Yeah that's a neat little sleeve, but I wouldn't use it.

OK, thought it was the size of the SGS phones.
That's because your Desire didn't come with oneYeah that's a neat little sleeve, but I wouldn't use it.
I've had the atrix for a day and a half now and its simply a beast. My previous phone was a iphone 3g so I can't really compare its performance to anything that's up to date but its quite snappy thus far. Easily my favorite aspect of the phone so far is the battery life. I picked up the phone with half battery and proceeded to use it heavily for almost 6 hours before it finally shut down on me. I know this could ruin my credibility as I've heard such negative things about motoblur, but I actually like it. This may be just becauce I come from an apple background where no additional functionality is worked into the OS and haven't tried any other overlays. Anyway thus far I like the phone and I will post back after a little more use..

anyone else really love the calling feature where when someone calls you it rings, but also reads you the name of the person calling.
