AT&T: Atrix 4G Laptop Dock Priced High Because You Can Do More Than a Netbook
Looking for a solid reason from ATT as to why their laptop dock for the upcoming Motorola Atrix 4G costs $499.99? Forbes reached out to ATT and got them to offer up a very interesting byte: it’s because it can do more than a netbook, apparently.
“With all the integration between the phone and the dock, you can do more on an Atrix than you can on a netbook,” Woodward explained. “Other devices that try to do this just give you ‘mirror mode.’”
Woodward said that the dock was “not that expensive” compared to a tablet. I have yet to use the Atrix 4G + Laptop Dock combination myself, but for $499.99 after a two-year contract and a WiFi hotspot service agreement, I’d hope that it’s comparable to a netbook in more aspects than the hardware it’s powered by.
We all knew ATT wouldn’t shy away from the price, but do you agree with their reasoning? Are they justified in how they’ve decided to price the Atrix 4G’s accompanying accessories? [Electronista]
