Default [Q] Should i buy the Atrix?

hi guys first I want to apologize for my terrible English

and second:
since i am not a developer and i am afraid to mess around with roms and stuff ,so locked bootloader is not something that should interrupt me but i looked alot lately at the forum and it is look like no one is happy with the Atrix...
over heat battery,finger scaner placed badly,the screen isnt smooth as they expected,the music stop in the middle,no software for the fm radio,No WiFi signal,or no signal at all and more...in shortly a huge motorola software Failure
so my question is should i buy it?
because as i said i dont want to deal with the software so much and beside that when you get a new phone you dont want to start with solving software issues

my current phone is samsung 514 or r220 so it will be a huge jump for me but i dont mind to jump so hight =D

Go to a store and try one, its the only way to know for sure. Its worked perfectly for me. Everyone who's seen my phone has commented on how beautiful the screen is. Even galaxy S owners.

I've had no issues whatsoever.

The store demo model did have an issue with losing its network connection when I turned on/off its wifi radio, but my device has not and I've been fooling around with it pretty much constantly.

Most of the store demo models weren't activate properly, unfortunately. The usual thing is that an older phone comes down and the new model goes up. They just swap the sim and the hspa+ data plan may not be provisioned properly.
I've had absolutely zero issues with my Atrix. My battery life is great, reception is solid and it's silly fast. Once Tegra 2 specific games and apps become readily available it's going to be that much better.
Play Dungeon Defenders on it and it's insane.

so evry thing is ok with your atrix too?
so why all the hate for him...do you know if a software update that will make the fm radio work will come soon?

Mine has been perfect. I think people get excited and sometimes expect too much. No phone is perfect all of the time, but the Atrix has been for me.
