ok, so this might sound N00bish, but i wanted to know when the Atrix ICS update rolls out, will i be able to update OTA with an unlocked bootloader?
Nobody knows the answers to your questions. Motorola is keeping this under tight wraps, for all we know know, we may be done with at gb, and the only way to get ics is with unofficial roms.
Motorola has "officially" added the Atrix to the ICS update list:

Just an FYI, I agree that staying with a custom ROM is the way to go.
^^^ Agreed and I'm sure moto-ics won't be that great anyhow.
