The Motorola Atrix 4G might be the future of smartphones. With a few optional accessories, it can become more than just a smartphone: it can be a full-fledged desktop or laptop computer. Before we gave the Atrix 4G a full review, we gave it a proper unboxing, so check out our slideshow for plenty of eye candy.
The Atrix smartphone actually has two operating systems: it runs Android 2.2, but when docked as a laptop or desktop, it also runs a custom version of Linux loaded with a desktop-class Web-browser (Firefox for Linux).
AT&T sells the laptop dock for $300-$500, depending on what data plan you have. Since the Atrix 4G is the CPU/hard drive/4G modem, the laptop is extremely thin and light. The laptop is just a battery, full size keyboard and 11.6-inch, 1366-by-768 LCD.
To turn the Atrix 4G into a desktop computer, you'll need to purchase the Motorola HD Multimedia Dock for $189. The dock comes with a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, and a remote control. You'll need to supply a monitor separately (the dock has an HDMI out, if you want to use your HDTV).
The Motorola Atrix 4G will be available for pre-order on AT&T on February 13 for $199.99 (with a two-year AT&T contract). For a deeper delve into the Atrix, read our full review.
