Not so cheap trix
Orange, Motorola's exclusive UK partner, has finally announced the UK prices of the Atrix, which runs the dual-core NVIDIA Tegra 2 SoC, and will be hitting UK stores in early May and will be available through Orange retail shops.
As expected, the price is at the higher end - the handset will be free on a £35 per month, 24 month contract, which includes 600 minutes, 750 MB of data download and unlimited texts.
Motorola has packed in the Atrix with two accessories: an HD Multimedia Dock, or a Lapdock. While the multimedia dock turns it into a mini-TV type of device, the lapdock aims to transform the phone into a full-fledged laptop. The lapdock is an 11-inch laptop-style screen and keyboard with a slot that holds the Atrix.
Those who buy it from Orange will have the added advantage of getting a Work and Play kit, which includes a remote control, HD multimedia dock and a keyboard for an additional £49.99. The lapdock comes with a hefty price tag of £299.99.
T-Mobile has also confirmed the Atrix for a May release, alongside Xperia Play, Desire S and Galaxy Ace.
The handset was earlier spotted on Expansys' website with a July release date, but the website doesn't provide any details as yet.
Here's James Nesbitt Conor from Orange to talk you through the Atrix.
