 "It seems Motorola really are focusing a lot on Google's open source Android Operating System, first, upping the number of people on their Android team, developing a social networking-based handset, running Android, and, now, it's said the company is to focus on three core platforms: Windows Mobile for business handsets, their own proprietary P2k Operating System, for low-end handsets, and, Google's Android OS will be the core focus of the three Operating System. These changes come under the recently appointed CEO Sanjay Jha, in a bid to shake up their handset division. This means Motorola will be working on exsisting Operating Systems no longer, like Symbian, meaning yet more lay-offs for the company. These changes may be announced during the company's earnings conference call tomorrow. " via mobile-review.com |
