Earlier today we saw a rumor revealing pricing details for the Motorola Atrix 4G Laptop Dock, one of the most interesting smartphones of the year, and now we have a bunch of release dates, still not official, for U.S. and Canadian consumers.

Bell Mobility appears to be one of the official carriers of the Motorola Atrix, and, according to a recent leak, the Atrix 4G will be launched in Canada on March 17, which is pretty much in accordance with previous release date rumors we’ve heard.

The leaked screenshot below shows the Motorola Atrix pegged for March 17, the HTC HD7 for February 10 and the LG Optimus Chic for January 14, so we’ll probably find out more details about the Canadian Atrix version in the near future. We’ll also note they don’t refer to it as a 4G device as it seems the 4G bug didn’t catch North of the border.

What’s interesting though is that Best Buy USA is said to receive the Atrix 4G on or after February 13 which means that the handset could hit stores soon after that, maybe by the end of the month, just as previous rumors suggested.

There’s no official news from Motorola or AT&T related to pricing details or actual release dates so you’ll have to wait some more before you decide what Android handset you’re going to buy next.

It will be interesting to notice that the HTC Thunderbolt and the Motorola Xoom, an Android 4G LTE smartphone and the first Honeycomb tablet in the world, respectively, are also expected to arrive in the upcoming months so choosing the right Android device might be an even tougher job than you think.

We’ll be back with solid Atrix information as soon as we get it, but until then keep following TFTS for more in-depth Android coverage.
