All that other mess I couldnt care less about. The Atrix could have a 6 core processor with a 5 inch screen and just because it's on AT&T I still wouldnt buy it so I dont even consider their phones.

There is a huge difference with the processors. I am a bit of a HTC fanboy, but I must say that the Atrix hardware is superior. It uses dual core ARM cortex-a9 chip architecture which is the latest. The chip is also 40nm. The gfx chip is ultra low voltage and is labeled as an 8-core. What does this mean? More efficient processing power with way lower power consumption.
The new snapdragon is still based off of the old snapdragon but made with 45nm, not 65nm like the EVO. Additionally, gfx got bumped up from the shitty adreno 200 to adreno 205 which is leaps and bounds better but a little behind as far as the competition. Even the "new" dual core snapdragons (announced last year) are based on this older framework.
Another thing besides having a better screen and better camera, it can also connect to international only CDMA networks.
So no, there is a HUGE difference.
