It’s hard to argue against activist investor Carl Icahn, who owns a 5% of Motorola and who says breaking up the company could unlock more value for shareholders, but the fact stays that the American handset maker is pretty much the dominant player in the U.S. handset market. So personally I don’t believe they should just dump it or sell it to someone else (Dell?).
“Motorola is fully committed to the mobile devices business and I am fully committed to mobile devices,” Chief Executive Greg Brown said at a reception at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
Again, we do want to see Moto re-emerging as a top player. You folks now co-own UIQ, get busy and show us some cool multimedia devices like ASAP. Will please help? 😉
