That my dear friend is the million dollar question. Each one has in its own right things I like and dislike. BTW, I have the Bionic Lapdock not the Atrix one.

As mentioned in a previous post...
The Bionic Lapdock,
Pros...
It is way better looking, thinner and a slightly bigger screen.
Double Tap on Touchpad to enable/disable it. (Helps when Typing)

Cons...
Photon hangs a bit off the docking area.
Photon does not attach to dock with a cover.
Screen does not tilt further back (like the lapdock 100)
No dedicated multimedia buttons.
No two finger scrolling on touchpad.

The Lapdock 100
Pros...
Screen tilts further back.
Phone stays put in docking slot.
Dedicated multimedia buttons. as well as Call, Print Screen buttons
Extra rows of keys
More keyboard space, smaller touchpad.

Cons...
Cable is abit stiff.
Due to length of cable, Phone sits in docking port that when playing netflix is upside down (unless you do the netflix hack)
Screen is smaller.
Bulkier design (some say it looks like an old Brother or IBM typewriter)
No Double Tap on Touchpad to enable/disable it.

More observations on the lapdock 100 can be seen in this AF post and more observations at the Motorola forum thread.

Anyway, going back to your question, for me the answer is that I end up using both. One day the Lapdock 100 another day the Bionic one. But since the Bionic has a bigger screen, I do tend to use it a slight bit more than the 100. (Which is why I want the 500, besides its vga port).

But all of this is temporary until I get the Lapdock 500 after the holidays. Being that its been confirmed that the Photon works with it, I'm surely getting it.
(At this rate I can open up my own Motorola Lapdock store, with so many lapdocks lol

TS out

Thanks TS.

I've actually read both threads...but was hoping for what you just gave...a comparison between the two.

I have the ability to make a cable that would plug into the Bionic (or in my case Atrix) dock and then plug into the Photon sitting flat on a table.

If I pick up the Atrix dock I'll get to work on a prototype cable which would mean no modding and no weird positions for the Photon...just laying (or on its kickstand, inverted) off to the side.

We'll see. I think the 11" is a better size than the 10" or the 14"...but we'll see...plus I like the $50 price tag on the Atrix one, however, the angled keyboard on the 100 would feel nicer I think.

The real concern I have is if the Atrix or Bionic dock would be orphaned sooner than the 100 or 500.

Thanks again!

Just ordered a Lapdock 100 yesterday. Before the 25% ends today...
Total with tax $209.76.
Was looking at the 500 but have seen where the sound and camera are not working with the Photon. Also the size jump to me is a thumbs down on the 500.

200 is still too high
