There's already a topic for this, but it's off-topic as it's in General forum.

This is the Motorola Atrix 4G smartphone:


What's interesting about this smartphone is not that it's running a Tegra 2, but that it is the modular computational-unit that can be placed in a dock, or a laptop-shell to make it act in more of a PC-like manner.

This is most impressive. While underpowered for a laptop, it's certainly good enough to do basic tasks. What's more is that the next generation ARM should put this combination on par with ATOMs which can run desktop apps reliably.

I would like to see this concept extend to a tablet-shell. Basically you get a smartphone and tablet in a single device. Add an extender battery for added life and you get a smartphone and tablet for [presumably] much less than the two alone.

Check out the video at the link above. It runs very well on a 24" screen.

What do you think?
