Yes in fact the desktop dock manual shows how you can use webtop when it's in there... I have not tried it yet though...

Actually it does not support webtop because in this way it can reduce the cost of the phone.

it's in the manual for the dock, but so are other options that I do not have when plugging in my Atrix HD into the desk dock (no hdmi attached)

through software, it might be possible to enable or install this capability (Lapdock or webtop) in our ATRIX HD ???

Some developer who can give us your opinion?

Yes it should, there is some dev work with it though. We are in luck if the modules are included in the kernel..

why would you want webtop ?

I have a lapdock and I use my AHD with it. Chrome or even the OEM browser covers everything I ever needed. the other apps will take care of the document editing and pdf/pps presentations.

I will choose to get all internal storage available over webtop.

The crux is the missing tablet ui without webtop and also the lower resolution. Atrix / Razr HD both using 1280x720, while native lapdock solution is 1366x768. Of course you can use the phone mode (or editing dpi settings in build.prop), but it isn't the same look and feel as with webtop 3.0. there is a lot of loosed space just because of the big softkeys and the wide system bar.

All i want is a native hdmi output or at least a true tablet mode without rebooting. On the other side, i dont need a linux like webtop 2.x, just a tablet look and feel over hdmi on my tv or lapdock.
