CES: Loving the Motorola laptop dock

LAS VEGAS--With its Best of CES Xoom tablet and an impressive selection of 4G Android smartphones, Motorola had a very good CES. Its Atrix handset won CNET's top award for the cell phone category, the Droid Bionic also packed a dual-core processor, and the  gave us a design twist we hadn't seen before. But even with that show of force, Moto really delivered with its laptop dock. Though it doesn't make calls and it can't do anything by itself, it shows some innovation and creativity that none of Moto's wireless rivals brought to Las Vegas.

Dell Inspiron 6000 Laptop Battery

Li-ion, 11.1V, 4400mAh Dell Inspiron 6000 Laptop Battery.

Battery Type:     Li-ion
Battery Volt:     11.1V
Battery Capacity:     4400mAh
Battery Weight:     335.5g
Battery Color:     Black
Battery Size:     209.40x71.80x19.80mm
Product Code:     NDE030
Sale price: AU $78.99

Admittedly, you wouldn't think much of the laptop dock the first time you picked it up. Though it's paper thin, its bland design won't stand apart from your average netbook. And unless you have a phone in hand, it's little more than a large paperweight. Yet, the laptop dock isn't about looks or what's inside; it's cool because it harnesses your phone's power and puts it on a new level.

Designed for AT&T's Atrix, the laptop dock allows you to comfortably use the phone's media, browsing and messaging features for long periods. Just plug in the Atrix to the ports on the back and the laptop dock's 11.6-inch monitor takes over. You can see all of the phone's features on the larger screen and interact with them using the standard keyboard and touchpad. Also, the Atrix's Wep top app ensure a seamless transition back and forth. It's a simple and exceedingly user-friendly concept--and one that I didn't even know that I wanted--but it transforms your phone into a real computing device.

When using the laptop dock I could type messages much faster on the full-sized keyboard and get a better video experience than I would on the Atrix's 4-inch touchscreen. I could angle the display as I wished and I loved that I didn't get the eye strain that I usually experience after using my phone's Web browser for even a few minutes. The dock also offers stereo speakers and up to eight hours of battery life while delivering a steady charge to your phone. And since it weighs just 2.4 pounds you can take it almost anywhere.

Great technology doesn't have to bring mind-blowing features or "the next best thing." It should, however, make existing products better and the laptop dock certainly improves the Atrix. The Atrix still is a phone, but when used with the laptop dock it's a better entertainment and productivity device. If I had a complaint right now, it's that the accessory is compatible only with the one handset. Though the Atrix appears to be a great phone by all accounts, Motorola needs to make the dock available for more models in its lineup. I also hope the company keeps the price to a reasonable level or even bundles it with the phone. Remember, Moto, the dock is all about convenience so don't take any steps to make it less so.

CES 2011: Motorola Dock Turns Your Android Phone Into a Laptop

LAS VEGAS ― A new smartphone docking station from Motorola has a built-in keyboard and screen, effectively turning your Android device into a laptop.

Product Code:     NTB035
Sale price: AU $67.99

The dock was presented at the Consumer Electronics Show today (Jan. 6) under the unimaginative name of Laptop Dock, but that name is likely to be changed before it goes on sale, Motorola spokesman Robert Schott told TechNewsDaily.

The Laptop Dock is designed to work with Motorola's upcoming 4G Android smartphone, the Atrix. Both the Atrix and the Laptop Dock will be available in the first quarter of 2011 through AT&T, Schott said. The company did not announce the pricing.

The Laptop Dock has a keyboard and an 11.5-inch (29-centimeter) screen, but no microprocessor. Instead, it relies on the Atrix's dual core processor running the Froyo build of the Android OS for all its computing.

With the Atrix connected, users can make calls and send text messages through the Laptop Dock, and they can run programs such as the Firefox web browser that are traditionally found on regular computers.

The Laptop Dock features two USB ports, a chiclet keyboard and a large trackpad. It weighs 2.5 pounds (1.1 kilograms) and has a laptop battery life of about 6 hours during normal web browsing, or 4 hours when watching videos.

Foreign Lobbyists Fight Air Safety Proposal for Lithium Battery Shipments

An Obama administration proposal to designate lithium batteries as hazardous cargo has sparked an intense lobbying effort, and has brought the government into conflict with many staunch allies and close trading partners.

As the Associated Press reports, China, Israel, Japan, and the European Union have all lined up against the U.S. plan to reclassify the batteries, saying it would raise shipping costs for popular commercial goods such as cellphones and laptops.

Administration officials say that the worry is misguided, estimating that the regulations would impose costs of only $9 million per year. Concern about the batteries stems from their tendency to short-circuit and catch fire during flight, which results in blazes that are both very hot and difficult to extinguish. A United Parcel Service cargo plane crashed in Dubai in September, after an onboard fire that investigators believe was either sparked or exacerbated by lithium hp compaq business notebook nx5000 battery.


But foreign government officials and industry leaders say that the U.S. plan unilaterally imposes standards that would raise costs more than the U.S. is letting on and also create logistical headaches. Israeli diplomat Ohad Cohen told the AP that it’s better to work through international organizations rather than for one country to “impose a big impediment for trade.”

The proposal has sparked an intense lobbying effort by the countries and industries that would bear the brunt of the new costs. For instance, the French battery-maker SAFT hired former U.S. Transportation Department official David Kunz, who until 2009 served as chief counsel of the division that wrote the regulations, as one of their lobbyists.

SAFT is also building a factory in Jacksonville, Fla., just outside of the district of Rep. John Mica, R-Fla., the incoming chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.

While originally written by the Transportation Department’s Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, the regulations are currently in the hands of the Office of Management and Budget. The final review of the proposal is now expected to be delayed for weeks or even months because of the pressure.
