Don't know what to tell you. It almost sounds unbelievable considering the crowd and knowledgeable AT&T employees (at least double the stuff that normally that store has) as well as the prominent display they had with both docks, extra keyboard, mouse and HD LCD display on the left hooked up on the HD dock, an Atrix sitting on a second HD dock in the middle (tethered that you can remove and play with if you wanted) and to the right the laptop dock. This AT&T store is in Texas but I find it hard to believe that your store at the least would not even know that the Atrix is already shipping. All they would have to do was probably look at their ordering computer or read the freaking news. I would blame AT&T on this one store more than anything.

They didn't even have the Atrix yet... They told me it doesn't launch until March 6.

Went back to that AT&T Store and they have the Atrix now (actually posting this from the laptop dock). The display is about half the size of the iPhone kiosk and no one is looking at it, although there are about 10 people in the store. Anyway, I didn't notice that the phone is any speedier in normal operation than my 800 MHz single core android phone, but it's otherwise nice. The laptop dock seems like a gimmick to be honest. Not as fast as my netbook, and it will never replace it's functionality. I was pleased to see that Motorola has adopted the 2-finger scrolling that Apple popularized. No reason not to steal good ideas when the opportunity presents itself...
