We will get the 100 dollar upgrade toward a RAZR maxx HD.

BTW, I am not recommending or condoning this, just sharing. I might do it just to see what the RAZR maxx HD is like but, we will see.
The rebate program is a joke. I own three eligible phones but the offer is only valid in the USA.

Read the article again, it says that it is only in the us right now but, they will be expanding it to other areas soon.
Isn't the RAZR Maxx HD a Verizon phone only?
Edit: Answered my own question.

You can always get the Atrix HD
Sent from that Atrix.
Well this a good place to cross-link threads: the Support My Moto Campaign - I see a few of us have already been over in that thread... not sure what we will really get out of this, but it's a good consolidated effort I suppose.
And, what you all talking 'bout? We already got some jelly beans for our phone (cm10 - pretty good start, so far) - and, I am pretty optimistic that we will get some other flavors of JB too.. so, I guess the news is not so disappointing.
On the other hand, I will be taking advantage of Moto in any way I can, so gimme that 100 virtual bucks!
Probably use it for my wife's A2 - she don't need unlocked bootloaders - heck, she wants me to put her back on GB after a week of ICS
Moto seems to make good quality phones/handsets.. but I will most likely move on to another manufacturer and keep my A2 as a backup.
Edit: We are on that list, but the plain ol' RAZR (xt910/912) is not?!? That's just wrong...
So is Motorola gonna pay for me to switch from at&t to Verizon? Otherwise that means nothing to the at&t crowd...

Yea man. The best way to do it, if you WANT a phone, save up the money and pay what you have to. Contracts get way out of hand when it comes to the small things. I'm currently tied down myself, but not for much longer. I'll most likely keep the A2 as a back up though since its still a very good piece of hardware AND I've grown quite fond of my A2 community (good people). And, honestly, I may or may not go with another Moto phone. It just all depends.
But all in all, this whole deal with Moto really doesn't bother me as bad as others are bothered. I mean come on, this phone is the shiz, and Moto really does make great phones. Its just from a developers point of view where things get sour.
Yes I went off topic a bit, but sometimes its needed for others to read and relate to.

As someone who owns both, I would recommend you stick it out and wait for the magic of an unlocked bootloader and custom ROMs to unlock the full potential of this phone and its dual-core CPU.
Compared to my Inspire, the battery life, lighter weight, better call quality, better antenna, and what seems to be crisper screen make my move from one to the other worth it.
I came from an Inspire, don't trade for it.... I love HTC phones, but I had a ton of oddities, with it.
There are a ton of things that can be done with out an unlocked bootloader, even ROMs, this phone has only been out a little over 60 days, hang tight there will be a ton of great things for this phone.
If you must trade for a mid line phone think about a used sgs, or an Infuse. If you really want a TOP end then go for an unlocked galaxy nexus.
Otherwise hang tight, and use bloat freezer, for the bloat on this phone, it is not bad for a stock build. If you don't like Blur, go get ADW launcher or Go Launcher Pro, or something like that.

I hope you're asking for cash on top. The Atrix 2 is a far better device compared to the Inspire. Not to say the Inspire is a bad device, but the Atrix 2 has far better specs compared to the Inspire. Good luck.

Don't do it.
I can't say that I'm jumping ship, but since my Atrix 2 is stuck in a bootloop and probably will be until the bootloader gets unlocked, I just ordered an Inspire from GreenCells to get me by in the meantime. As soon as the Atrix gets unf*cked though, you can bet I'll be switching back.
I've had so many f**king problems with this thing it insane. I've exchanged this phone 3 times at best buy cause of the same problems and once w/ AT&T. I don't know if I can deal with the same problems again. Such as screen scrambling "like snow on a TV" also random reboots, just to name a few. there are a lot more things I'm having go wrong.

Instead of choosing the inspire and you don't like the ATRIX 2 then see if they'll exchange for the sgs2. I had a nexus s they exchanged for the ATRIX 2. It could happen....maybe.....

Its also suffering from many of the same things. I think the Atrix 2 should have been fixed or both at the same time.

Unless you got your phone online or over the phone, they aren't going to send you another phone, let alone an upgrade. If you got the Atrix 2 from a store, you're going to have to take it back to the store. If you've had the phone for more than a month, they will tell you to call warranty exchange to get a refurbished replacement, but not before spending copious amounts of time troubleshooting first. If you have been with AT&T for a long time, without any shutoffs, or a late payment history, you can try the "I'll cancel my service" routine, which usually doesn't work, because you will still have pay an ETF. Basically, they own you until your contract expires. It sucks, but that's how AT&T rolls.

If you guys are still selling your phones, I would recommend putting an ad up on your local craigslist. Before I dove into the root world and unlocked my SG4G to its full potential, I posted an ad up to sell my phone for $200 and got all kinds of offers. This was about two months ago.
Sad to see many people moving away from this phone. Although I do believe it is becoming outdated, I still think its a great phone nonetheless. I'm personally holding onto it because I will be spending a year abroad and have already unlocked it for international use.
Best of luck.

Interesting...I've come to expect that in the land of Android, devices have a very short run and then the next not piece of hardware comes out just a few months later and what was, is no longer. It's kind of why i'm excited and sad at the same time about the prospect of me getting an SGS3. I have a feeling the device will be a has been come Christmas time
I don't think the phone is going anywhere anytime soon though man, the only way I was able to get mine for free was due to a price match back in November when Radio Shack had them for free w/2yr contract. Luckily mine wasn't 30 days old yet so I was able to get the price match via refund . Here we are 7 months later and it's still around....AT&T still selling them for $99. Now when AT&T drops it to free, then be worried And just a FYI, AT&T had it for the same price when I bought mine the end of October. Unless they run out of stock, I don't think it's going anywhere anytime soon.

Very Nice! Although what it does not say is how long the implementation will take. By that time most everyone here will have most likely traded in their A2 for a Galaxy SIII. Or something more powerful. Look at how long ICS is taking to hit the US A2.
If we don't get JB the $100 offer will be useless to me unless Motorola makes the next Nexus device.
I wonder if they are going to skip ICS and go straight to JB (att version)? May this be what's holding up the ICS soak?

Keep in mind folks, as far as the "developing options" goes, I doubt that means unlocking the bootloader.
We already have a "development options" tab in our leak, remember? That may be why it's on the leak, because Moto was testing it before it was released.
This could be nice. But... if they expect to get the updates out by the end of the year, they ought to start kicking a** instead of dragging it. I'm hopeful.

Read the beginner's guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396650) to get an idea of where development for this phone is first. Locked bootloader (with no change in sight), an ICS update which has been moved from Q3 to an indefinite point in the future - it seems like Moto is trying to let this phone quietly die. If you're okay with that then sure, go for it... personally, I would opt for something made by a different company.
Locked down bootloader!
Enough said. I will give it a miss.
