<description><![CDATA[Future versions of Motorola's Atrix smartphone-laptop combo will be rolled out as Android &quot;alternatives&quot; totablets and other newfangled devices, Motorola's chief executive said this week. The phone maker's first crack at the Atrix smartphone-laptop convergence wasn't perfect. CNET Reviews said the lack of Google's Chrome operating system hurts (Atrix uses aFireFox-centric &quot;Webtop&quot; operating environment). And performance in the laptop configuration (i.e., the 'lap-dock&quot;) is sluggish. Motorola Atrix 4G in laptop dock. Atrix smartphone is docked behind the laptop&amp;39's screen. The laptop is essentially a keyboard, touchpad, speakers, ports, and battery--all powered by the Atrix 4G smartphone&amp;39's silicon.(Credit:CNET Reviews)Motorola Atrix 4G lap-dock and original iPad.(Credit:CNET Reviews)But that doesn't mean it's toast, considering all of the praise the Atrix 4G and laptop dock received atCES 2011.  Sanjay Jha, chairman and chief executive officer of Motorola Mobility, said Thursday there's a lot more to come for Atrix, stating that the device is an &quot;alternative&quot; way of merging mobility (smartphones) and computing (PCs). Code for an alternative to the iPad and other devices that straddle the space between those two established markets.  &quot;In the Android ecosystem, there is a need for us to differentiate,&quot; Jha said. &quot;[With] Atrix devices with the Webtop and lap-dock we really think there is an alternative way of viewing the convergence between mobility and computing. And we will continue to focus on that,&quot; he said during the earnings conference call, responding to an analyst's question.  Jha continued. &quot;You will see multiple devices from us in the second half...and we will expand the range of our lap-dock devices so we cover a broader price point, addressing both enterprise tiers as well as more consumer tiers.&quot;  One intriguing possibility is basing a future Motorola phone on a quad-core processor that when plugged into the laptop dock would provide performance that's a lot closer to a true laptop than current Atrix products.  And this presents broader market potential. For instance, a class of high-end smartphones packing high-performance processors (from Intel, Nvidia, Qualcomm) that plug into ultraportable laptop shells.  No, the laptop isn't dead but some interesting variations on the traditional theme are probably in the cards.  <br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[After shipping 15 million iPads in 2010, Apple is expected to deliver 40 million iPads in 2011, supply chain sources tell the site Digitimes.Apple will ship between 6 million and 6.5 million iPads in the first quarter, the sources say. The numbers include shipments of both the original iPad and the iPad 2 that&amp;'s expected to be announced in just a few hours. Apple&amp;'s initial batch of iPad 2s will number somewhere between 300,000 and 400,000 units, according to the sources.Digitimes is known for its connections with original equipment manufacturers and other companies in device supply chains, so its shipment numbers are often worth paying attention to.A previous Digitimes report from December estimated that Apple will ship 65 million this year, but that was based on an extrapolation from display shipments. The 40 million number seems more realistic, and it falls in line with analyst estimates that say Apple will ship between 40 million and 50 million iPads this year.In other news, the most convincing iPad 2 mockup yet has hit the web via Chinese gadget site DGtle. The site itself doesn&amp;'t seem to be too sure on its legitimacy, but the mockup looks to be higher quality than previous iPad 2 designs. It also features elements we&amp;'re expecting to see from the new tablet today, including a slimmer design, front and rear cameras, and a larger speaker.Next Story: RIM&amp;'s BlackBerry PlayBook coming April 10 Previous Story: Today&amp;'s valuations: Is it 1999 all over againPrintEmailTwitterFacebookGoogle BuzzLinkedIn      DiggStumbleUponRedditDeliciousGoogleMore&amp;8230'          Tags: iOS, iPad, iPad 2, tabletsCompanies: Apple, Digitimes          Tags: iOS, iPad, iPad 2, tabletsCompanies: Apple, DigitimesDevindra Hardawar is VentureBeat's lead mobile writer and East Coast correspondent.
