Moto Backing Away From Windows Mobile
,----[ Quote ]
| Earlier this month reports emerged that Motorola would cut as much as 50
| percent of its handset division, as it slashes down the number of phones it
| sells to a dozen and focus solely on Google’s Android Operating System. The
| decision, made us wonder if Microsoft’s Windows Mobile OS might be a big
| loser because of that focus on Android. The Wall Street Journal today reports
| that Motorola indeed might be saying sayonara to Windows.

| Rumour has it that Motorola is ditching the Windows Mobile platform for its
| smartphone handsets in favour of Google's new Linux-based Android.

| As reported over on BetaNews, the company has announced to the State of
| Florida that it is to shut down its Windows Mobile development centre in
| Plantation, Florida – with 77 jobs for the chop as a result, added on to the
| 4,000 jobs the company has already 'restructured' this month.
