Moto to speed up releases of phones in '06. Whither Nokia?
If only Nokia would do the same. I'm sick and tired of waiting three months or more for release of new handsets.
NEW YORK, Nov 15 (Reuters) - Motorola Inc. (MOT.N: Quote, Profile, Research) , riding high on the success of its eye-catching Razr phone, is determined to stay on top in the design battle with rival cell phone makers next year, the head of its mobile devices division said on Tuesday.
"Motorola is hell-bent on making sure we have the hottest device in all form factors," Ron Garriques said in an interview.
He also said Motorola plans to rip a page out of Apple Computer Inc's (AAPL.O: Quote, Profile, Research) playbook and begin selling phones the day after announcing them -- rather than announcing them well in advance, as it has up to now.
