Thanks for the useful link. Now to enable proxy settings on the Atrix...

Alright. So for now I don't see much "phone-home trouble" but I'm far from the security expert around here. There are a few http queries (both GET and POST) made using some plain text OAUTH tokens to the MotoBLUR servers, but as far as I could notice nothing was really sending much information. Then again, the first thing you do when you launch blur for the first time is giving it your twitter/facebook/gmail account login&passwords, so... I'll get what I deserve here :P

The only "tracking/keylogging" queries I could find were done to data.flurry.com, and were only tracking (in plain text) my inputs on the Winamp App, so I call it fair play.

I'm a bit relieved here, thanks again for the tip with Charles. Let's hope someone with a better expertise than me will definitely rule Motorola out of that CarrierIQ logging thing, but so far, so good.
