Carl Icahn, the guy who has been pressing Motorola to spin off their handset division since the beginning of time, now owns 6.3% of Motorola versus 1.4% in March of last year. With that kind of power comes great amounts of influence when discussing the company’s future. Here is hoping the RAZR III isn’t on the road map.
