New Android phones are popping up like crazy at the Consumer Electronics Show. A number of them have Nvidia&'s Tegra 2 dual-core ARM-based processor, including the Motorola Atrix smartphone.
This kind of cool new phone is what makes Motorola&'s smartphones the &''tip of the Android spear,&'' which is pointed right at Apple&'s iPhone. We got an up-close look at the Atrix 4G at Nvidia&'s booth. This is AT&'Ta4‚¬a4„s first smartphone with a dual-core chip that runs at 2 gigahertz and features 1 gigabyte of RAM. The phone is so powerful that Motorola will offer a dock that lets you plug in the Atrix 4G so you can use it as a virtual laptop.
Check out our video of the device up close and personal.
