This will not turn around Motorola. Executives are not prescient, and companies need market input to migrate successfully. Cutting new products and technologies is not going to provide the elements needed to success – good scenario planning, obsessive competitor understanding, willingness to be disruptive and using White Space to understand market needs. Motorola’s new plan misses most of the requirements. Read more at http://www.TheP...ixPrinciple.com

“…than to try to create its own modern mobile OS that nobody else will care about.”

News flash: No one outside of Silicon Valley cares about any OS on their mobile phone. You all keep confusing the mobile industry with the PC industry and they’re just not the same, as much you as you will wish it was.

I’m glad Motorola will be going with the Android platform, maybe I will actually start buying their phones again. My Motorola phones used to crash all the time.

They dont have a choice anyways. Also, given the flop models they have released in the recent years, it will be a hard time for Motorola to catch up with the rest

Android is the right choice, an open source Linux based OS that can be extended with powerful Apps and a built in distribution system.

Windows Mobile is in great need of being replaced. So far all efforts have focused on layering a (visually appealing) shell over top of existing legacy code. MS did this with their desktop OS up until Vista and created a difficult hurdle to pass for themselves in the process. Hopefully they learned their lesson and will rebuild mobile from the ground up to be a mobile OS poised for future needs.

To be fair, Windows Mobile is a decent OS for yesterday and today, it just doesn’t have the power or underlying architecture to compete with OSX or Android in the long haul. The leading and future mobile devices will be computers in their own right and will need desktop OS class architectures and 3rd party developer App development to remain competitive. Im confident MS can deliver, its just that WinMobile doesn’t have this, right now.

My bet is on windows mobile.. They will slash price of the OS soon. With proper touch interface it should rock, loosely tied android will crumble soon.

[...] Will Motorola Go All-In On Android? It Has No Other Choice. TechCrunch Wed, 29 Oct 2008 8:55 AM PDT Motorola’s new co-CEO Sanjay Jha has a plan to save the beleaguered mobile handset maker: go all-in on Google’s Android mobile operating system. According to a report in the Wall Street Journal (behind the pay wall): The rumor is that Motorola will focus all of its efforts around three core operating systems for its phones, with Android becoming the central platform for “mid-tier” phones … [...]

Motorola is so screwed….relying on an unproven OS. They think a “social networking phone” is going save them? What Fortune 500 executive clamor for it? People in their 20’s all buy Apple…they dont want a Motorola.

The best part is that they agreed to pay CEO Sanjay Jha $30M even if he fails.

Motorola instead of going 350 developers route should have went to blackberry route and instead set up a big fund to give to best app developers.

OK, Android seems to be the smartest (only choice) i just don’t see any point on having three different operations systems. Hey come on, does anybody believe that windows mobile will be a considerable player on the mobile OS market a few years from now ?
