Do you work for Verizon?
I've seen reviews where the iphones sealed battery meant that it's superior to a droid. It's all a matter of preference. I countered in red. I'm kinda over the bionic so I have no vested interest in the bionic and am playing devils advocate. It's hard to say what will be available when the bionic finally drops and what will drop the month after the bionic...and what will drop on other networks. Verizons network is the best, no competition but can I get coverage in my daily routine on a different network for less...
The point of my post is exactly what you stated. What is better for me is not going to be better for everyone. Its all a matter of preference. But I fail to see why you would be insulting with the first line of your post. I will address your points one by one.
1. The vast majority of buyers are not going to root so how they come out of the box is what matters. Efuse is not some software thing added by Verizon. Efuse is there by Motorolas doing so if the Bionic has it the Atrix will have it as well. Either way its part of the chipset Motorola uses from TI and since the chipset in the Atrix and Bionic are from nvidia its doubtful efuse will be on either device. Since you are obviously ingnorant as to what efuse is and does this link may help you

2. .3 inches is in fact a noticeable difference and may be important to some people, just as the slightly higher pixel density on the Atrix might be. Both the Atrix and the Bionic have the same qHD resolution so the rest of your point in regard to the screen is completely irrelevant.
3. The only feature the Bionic doesnt have (at this point in time, it may change later) is the dock. The vast majority of the time these devices will be used away from the dock. In that case I would choose faster every single time. Either way its a win for ME. The OP stated that he/she thinks
that Verizon is behind the curve here and I am stating why I think they are not.
4. Just about everyone knows more megapixels doesn't always mean better. As such one manufacturers 5 MP camera may be better than another manufaturers 8 MP camera. In this case however we are talking about the same manufacturer and we have seen so far that Motorolas 8 MP camers are much better than their 5 MP cameras. Check out the picture thread in the Droid X forum and come back and tell us how all those excellent pictures suck. A cell phone camera is not going to be better than most good stand alone cameras but the cameras on the current generation of smarts phones do not suck.
5. Maybe you failed to notice but these two devices are being marketed as 4G devices making it one of the most important features of the device. Verizon has FAR more 3G AND 4G coverage than ATT does by a HUGE margin. Far more users will benefit from Verizon coverage here than ATT's.
Last time I checked Verizon and ATT's prices were pretty much the same. The big difference being Verizon still has unlimited data plans. Neither have announced their 4G pricing so you have no way of knowing who will cost more. Also, I pay almost $100 less on my family plan with unlimited data than I would on a comparable ATT plan.
6. What it means is that you can ONLY install apps from the Android Market on ATT. On Verizon you can install apps however you want. Again, its completely relevant for the VAST MAJORITY of the people who are going to purchase these devices. The original OP stated why Verizon is behind the curve. I am giving my opinion why they are not. ROOT is irrelevant in the context this discussion.
7. Again the OP is stating that Verizon is always behind the curve. I am giving my opinion that ATT is far behind the curve in customer service. Yes, we are paying for it. So I am paying for good service and you are paying for crap service so who wins out there?
You seem to be under some delusion that ATT is cheaper than VZW. They are pretty much the same when it comes to pricing. The OP stated they think that Verizon and the Bionic are behind the curve. I stated that in my opinion Verizon is far from behind the curve. Nothing you stated changes that.
