Twitter hashtag to protest the price?

[irishtexmex]

As lame at is, the current thing retailers and big companies hate to see is bad P.R. on the social networking soup-du-jour, and the current thing with that title is Twitter.

I think we could get a lot of momentum if suddenly there was a huge amount of people tweeting AT&T and Motorola with the same hashtag. Something like #iwontbuytheatrixbecauseofthepricing. Now obviously that's super long. Any suggestions?

#AtrixLaptopDockPriceIsPreposterous

#PhoneAccessoriesShouldNotBeTethering

#ATTSucks

#ATTHasNo(Android)Soul

etc.,etc.

See though, i still like the phone itself, i just think they are killing an otherwise great device with that "bundle" price and required tethering...

Im completely twitliterate. What does sending a message to a hashtag do?

I agree. This is all AT&T's doing. How about something like. #attkilledtheatrix ? That seems short enough. And everyone should @ ATT about it. I think if there was... I dunno, even just 300+ people doing this then they would recognize. Maybe in a few days?

Worth a shot, and I'm game, but just so everyone knows it did nothing to Samsung with the #froyogate and #neveragain hashtags, they didn't care at all...

I just tweeted this:

@ATT your price for the Atrix dock and required tethering (when you aren't legally tethering) is highway robbery. #waytokillagreatphone

Someone over from XDA tweeted a good one, and I think it should all be the one we adopt (if you choose to do this. Doesn't take much time.)

Tweet it yourself, and then retweet it when you see it. Thanks.

@ATT @ATTNews @ATTTeamUSA Congratulations, #ATTyoukilleditforme with your ridiculous ATRIX pricing scheme. #waytoruinagreatphone

Hello, I'm new here. Just visited a local Att store, an the manager was the only person that knew anything about the Atrix. He specified that pricing would be $500 for both the phone an the shell dock together as in the press release an that if ya bought the shell dock separate after the phone that it would be $350 so if ya purchased together it was a $50 savings. (still rediculuos price) He also said that Feb 13 was a preorder only. Tweeting my frustration Now!!

The phone is only $200 without the dock so why all the hysteria?? Just don't buy the stupid dock!
