Atrix Laptop will be the best laptop on market

[patfactorx]

Imagine a laptop that gets better with every phone you get!? As long as Motorola continues releasing phones with a dock feature then this will be a laptop that will never get outdated.

THATS KRAZI!!!

You have a dualcore laptop this year. quad core next year. hexa core the next year after that...

I thought the Atrix was a smartphone?

The Atrix has a feature that turns it into the processing unit for a laptop

I highly doubt the laptop dock will be universal. Too much money lost compared to making people buy a different one per phone. Not to mention the physical and technological compatibility complications.

Sounds good. You can pay $40/month for tethering add on and 2 GB of data

I'll still be here with my $500 netbook (same price as your laptop dock) and let's see when there's a laptop dock + phone that can out perform it.

Never gets outdated......a laptop with a 1ghz processor (dual core or not) was outdated a long time ago, lol.

It's cool, it's useful....it WON'T replace a laptop.

Top of the line netbooks generally go for $500 or more

Best laptop on the market ))))))))))))))))) , lets see that go against my i7 laptop . Can it run Mafia 2 or Crysis at 40+ FPS , full 1080p on highest settings ? I wonder how many hours it takes to crop a picture in Photoshop or burn a blue-ray , oh wait , it can't even run anything else other than Mozilla .

that laptop dock is worthless. id never use it even if it came free.

The obsolescence is a good point, but that future Atrix's probably won't be compatible with that dock is a better point.

Not to mention, that dock is, at this point, nothing more than an awkward tablet/keyboard combination. All you will really want to do on it is browse, and I suppose run apps/games to get a tablet-like experience, but an inferior one with no Honeycomb and a bit lighter specs.

Some day. It's a nice glimpse of the future, But until we get the ability to run a full-blown Linux PC OS on this (and that's going to require at least 1gig dedicated ram) it's no threat to a REAL laptop and remains little more than a gimmick/novelty.

The 3-in-1 smartphone/tablet/laptop is coming, but we are probably a year or two away yet.

Motorola will do whatever they can to ruin our experience with this concept.

Probably will have locked bootloader and each model will likely not be compatible with the last.
