In a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, Motorola’s co-CEO Sanjay Jha said the company is open to the idea of making Windows Mobile 7 phones. No details were given, and I’m guessing they wait to see how things are shaping up.
If you remember, Motorola has focused all its attention to Android, effectively dumping Windows Mobile and Symbian UIQ
In the same interview, Sanjay Jha talks about the MOTOBLUR interface and plans to bring it beyond mobile to set-top boxes. The move will make this traditionally simple devices (though they were getting more complicated after the “TiVo revolution”) more complex with the introduction of social networking features. Such social networking-enabled set-top boxes could appear as early as this year, or eventually in 2011.
And if you don’t know, MOTOBLUR runs on top of Android OS on several Motorola smartphones such as CLIQ/DEXT, BACKFLIP, DEVOUR and CLIQ XT/QUENCH, allowing users to keep up with their social networking activities across services like Facebook and Twitter.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
