Motorola

description

Motorola is continuing its drive down the information superhighway, but with a slimmer load and a new driver at the wheel. The company's reorganization has continued after the highly publicized spin-off of its semiconductor unit. Its remaining operations have been focused on four business segments: connected home solutions; government and enterprise mobility solutions; mobile devices; and networks. Motorola is the #2 manufacturer of wireless handsets after global leader Nokia. The company also is a leading supplier of such wireless infrastructure equipment as cellular transmission base stations, amplifiers, and servers.
