Docking into Webtop:

The charging and syncing dock is unique. It has a multi-media dock which has there USB ports, a 3.5mm jack and a full sized HDMI port. Plug it to a HD television or a monitor and watch the Linux-based OS, apart from the Android, called the Webtop, take centre stage. In this mode the Firefox's full computer version browser is used for surfing and working apps. Work and edit docs on the net, simply using a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. You still have access to the Android and its apps, in this mode.

There's also a laptop dock, that adds a wafer-thin 11.6 inch screen, keyboard, eight hour battery, trackpad and stereo speakers, which makes it quite portable and usable like a laptop. You can run the Android apps on screen, accessing the phone's files. Citrix support is also included. It has Motoblur, so you lock your lost handset. You can't access Webtop when its a phone. But it remembers the program last used when you dock it next, like a lap. You can attend calls too if need be. The Motorola Atrix comes with great accessories and three docks for now. It's good to have only one phone that can do a whole lot of things for you, on or off the dock.
