AT&T is pushing out an update to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean for the Motorola Atrix HD. It is available via Wi-Fi.
To update via Wi-Fi, go to Settings>About Phone>Software Updates on their phone.
It is always a good idea to backup your data before any update and make sure your battery is at least 50% charged. You will not be able to make calls during the update process .
An added bonus is the Drive Smart action with Enhanced Voice Search for a safer driving . The SMARTACTIONS Drive Rule will auto-reply to calls and texts as well as enables hands-free conversations.

Finally. I wish they would update the original Motorola Atrix 4G, like they promised. We should be able to go two years with fresh updates before we have to buy a new phone. They should keep all phones update until the end of the contract.
Here, here. Geez Google owns Moto and they should be able to get updates out in a timely manner.
Motorola was bought by Google not for the telephone and wireless phone hardware but for their patents. Without the Motorola patents, Google would be in big trouble.
