Will Motorola Rise From the Ashes?

An anonymous reader writes "According to ZDNET the once almighty Motorola is going to split into two companies, 'If the split goes through as planned, what will remain will be the "broadband and mobility solutions" business, which includes enterprise mobility, government and public safety, and Motorola's home and networks divisions.' Engadget claims to have an insider's email that details where it all went wrong, paying particular attention to mismanagement at the highest levels. What makes all of this even more of a shame though is that Motorola's latest product lineup seems to be receiving critical acclaim but with the company in so much termoil, will it ever rise out of the ashes?"

    Will Motorola rise from the ashes? Most people would say, "No, of course not, what kind of stupid question is that."

    Avoiding McCain like the plague sounds good, except that Hillary and Obama are both equally horrible, just in different ways.

    No matter who gets elected in November, we (Americans) are all screwed.
