Motorola terbelah dua

JAKARTA: Motorola hari Rabu lalu mengumumkan rencana untuk memisahkan bisnis telepon seluler dari operasi mereka yang lain.

Para eksekutif Motorola mengatakan langkah ini akan memungkinkan kedua perusahaan dapat memusatkan perhatian pada kekuatan dan kelemahan masing-masing dan mempercepat rencana pemulihan unit telepon seluler mereka.

“Pembentukan dua perusahaan publik terpisah memberikan fokus manajemen yang lebih baik, dan struktur modal yang lebih sesuai untuk kebutuhan bisnis masing-masing,” ucap Greg Brown, CEO Motorola yang nantinya akan memimpin unit nonponsel perusahaan tersebut, seperti dikutip AP.

Dia menilai langkah itu akan meningkatkan kelincahan dan organisasi. “Ini juga akan membantu kami melangkah maju.”

Perincian rencana tersebut belum tersedia, namun Motorola menyebutkan bisnis handset mereka akan beroperasi terpisah dari perusahaan pecahan mereka yang menawarkan set-top box,modem, dan peralatan komputasi dan komunikasi.

Apabila rencana tersebut disetujui oleh regulator, kedua unit tersebut akan dipisahkan pada 2009.

Tidak disebutkan apakah salah satu perusahaan atau keduanya akan mempertahankan merek Motorola, atau perusahaan mana yang akan mendistribusikan saham pada pemilik modal saat ini.

Carl Icahn, salah satu investor Motorola, menyebutkan pengumuman tersebut sudah lama tertunda dan sudah terlambat, serta terus mendorong pemilihan empat orang anggota dewan yang mewakilinya.

“Sebagai salah satu pemegang saham Motorola terbesar, saya masih prihatin tentang kesigapan dan cara pelaksanaan transaksi pemisahan dan pemilihan tim manajemen baru untuk bisnis peranti bergerak,” katanya.

Motorola saat ini terus mencari CEO baru untuk bisnis peranti bergerak mereka sambil berusaha kembali ke posisi nomor 2 dalam pasar telepon seluler. Motorola kehilangan tempat tersebut tahun lalu pada saingannya, Samsung Electronics. Perusahaan Finlandia, Nokia Corp. tetap memegang posisi pertama. (k8)

Motorola Roadmap 2008 Leaked

A whole bunch of new Motorola handsets seem to be under way. Some of the devices have already been spotted online but now we have more details and there are some devices that haven't come up until now. A leaked Motorola 2008 roadmap disclosed all the information and we are more than happy to pass it on.

Chances are that you've already heard that the Motorola Mobile Division is going through some rough times. It's good to see that they are trying their best to fight back, but even now that we see what they will have to offer in 2008, we are not really sure that they are going to make it successfully through the end of the year. At least to us their chances are as low as the resolution of this leaked roadmap image.

Motorola A810

Motorola A810 has a 2.2-inch 262K color TFT display with QVGA resolution and a 2 megapixel camera. It runs on a 200 MHz TI OMAP850 processor. It boasts stereo Bluetooth, FM radio, USB 2.0 connectivity, a 3.5 mm audio jack and tri-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support. Memory is expandable via a microSD memory card.

Motorola A810 measures 104.85 x 50.8 x 13.5mm and weighs 100 grams. It has a touchscreen display with full support for handwriting recognition and uses Linux OS for its user interface.

Motorola VE75

The Motorola VE75 is a dual SIM slider with a large 2.6-inch 262K color TFT display. The display has 16:9 ratio and has a WQVGA resolution (240 x 400 pixels). Much like the recently reviewed Samsung D880 duos, the Motorola VE75 has dual SIM functionality, which allows it to operate with two SIM cards simultaneously.

Motorola VE75 measures 110 x 50 x 18.9mm and weighs 120 grams. The multimedia widescreen device also sports a 2 megapixel camera and Bluetooth connectivity.

Motorola A1600

We already told you some details about the upcoming Motorola A1600 MING, but there is some new information now. The Motorola A1600 is equipped with GPS, WLAN and a 3 megapixel auto focus camera. The touch-based A1600 comes as a successor of the original Motorola A1200 MING and has a 2.4-inch 262K TFT display.

The Motorola A1600 will have quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support and will measure 98.5 x 53.4 x 19.50mm and weighs 120 grams.

Motorola A1800

The Motorola A1800 MING is also a handset we reported on recently. It's unique with the fact that it can work simultaneously in GSM and CDMA x1 networks - that may be of particular interest to US customers.

The Motorola A1800 MING will also have a GPS receiver and will sport a touchscreen 2.4-inch QVGA TFT display. It will measure 95.3 x 52.5 x 24.95mm and weigh 132 grams.

Motorola L800t

The Motorola L800t is again a dual-network device. It will be the first TD-SCDMA handset by Motorola (TD-SCDMA is a 3G telecommunications standard currently being tested in China). Beside that the Motorola L800t has GSM/GPRS support.

Its specifications are relatively lower midrange - a 1.9-inch 176 x 220 pixel TFT display and a 2 megapixel camera. The Motorola L800t naturally has Bluetooth support. The handset measures 49 x 112 x 15mm and weighs 110 grams.

Motorola ZN5

And finally, the flagship of the product line is the 5 megapixel Motorola ZN5 codenamed "Texel". It's only 11.9mm in thickness and has the impressive morphing keypad seen otherwise on Motorola ROKR E8.

The Motorola ZN5 will run on the Montavista Linux 2.6.1 OS and a 500MHz Freescale SCMA11 processor. The ZN5 will also flaunt a 2.4-inch 262K color TFT display with QVGA resolution. Bluetooth and TV-out port complete the feature set that's known for now.

Since all these devices are scheduled for Q2 2008 we should be expecting an official announcement by Motorola within a month or so.

Motorola ROKR E10

And finally, there's another leaked Motorola today, which obviously haven't made it to the roadmap published above. It's the music-oriented Motorola ROKR E10, enjoy.

Dari semua "bocoran" di atas itu, pertanyaannya :
1. Kapan akan di-announce secara resmi?
--> Kalau gak ada announcement resmi hampir dipastikan gak akan dirilis kan? Jangan pake jawaban kaya EJ atau MF ya...
2. Kapan rencana rilisnya, baik di Amerika maupun di luar Amerika termasuk Indonesia?
3. Type mana saja yang diperkirakan akan masuk ke Indonesia?

Kayaknya gak ada manfaatnya tau kapan semua tipe tersebut akan keluar. Emang mau dibeli semuanya?
Itu kan cuman info bocoran, bener ato tidaknya gak ada yang tau pasti. Jadi gak usah berandai-andai.
Teknologi lama kelamaan hanya memperbudak manusia.

I'm not a fan, nor an evangelist, but I'm neither a hater. Keluarga saya dan saya pake semua merek hape. Bapak saya pake Siemens dan Nokia, ibu saya pake Sony Ericsson, adik saya pake Motorola, saya pake Philips dan Nokia.

I'm just posting a news. Love it or loathe it, it's your comment. And it's yours to keep too

hello moto!

Maksud gw kalau infonya dilengkapi dengan prediksi jadwal announcement dan/atau jadwal rilis kan jadi lebih bermanfaat bagi para penggemar Motorola yang kangen sama produk barunya Motorola.
Kalau hanya sekedar rumor kan udah sering...
Buat gw sih gak ngaruh sebenarnya, cuma ngasih saran aja, siapa tahu ada yang berniat nyari info lebih detail gitu... itupun kalo ada.

Bagi saya yang udah pake Motorola sejak lama hanya sekedar suka aja dengan Motorola tapi untuk membeli hp baru baik itu Motorola atau brand lain gak dulu deh. Saya sudah cukup puas dengan hp saya sekarang, sudah sesuai dengan kebutuhan
Secanggih2nya hp sekarang bagi saya bukan menjadi hal yang unik lagi. Itu sudah biasaaaa. SonyEriccson dengan embel2 kecanggihannya, Nokia dengan embel2 kemudahan pemakaiannya, Motorola dengan design2nya yang memang mulai membosankan tapi buat apa itu semua kalo kita gak niat/mampu membelinya?

Hari gini bangga2in teknologi hp, udah gak jaman karena emang udah jamannya kecanggihan. Merk2 China aja bisa dikatakan lebih canggih kalo kita udah gak peduli dengan yang namanya merk.

Revamped Motorola phone unit will realign its product teams

By Jacqueline Emigh, BetaNews
April 18, 2008, 6:06 PM

The newly reorganized Motorola phone manufacturing company, soon to be spun off, will undergo a radical realignment that eliminates the bureaucratic barrier between software and hardware divisions, according to a company memo.

To get Motorola ready for a planned spinoff of its mobile phone business, Motorola CEO Greg Brown issued a memo to employees outlining a reorganization into new product and "Go to Market" (GTM) teams, also announcing the names of execs in new roles, including those of leaders of the new "Mass Market" and "Mid and High Tier" product groups.

In Mobile's new mobile phone organization, each of the product teams will combine hardware and software specialists, according to Jennifer Erickson, a company spokesperson. Previously, hardware and software specialists worked in different groups.

But as Motorola now sees it, the new approach will spur more efficiency, Erickson told BetaNews today.

"Integrating hardware and software teams creates single points of accountability and strengthens collaboration, both of which accelerates our time to market," she elaborated in a statement this afternoon.

Motorola's multimedia and feature phones, formerly handled by separate departments, will now be brought together in a single product team, known as Mid and High Tier Products, to be led by John Cipolla.

Cipolla will report to Rob Shaddock, who has been named leader of Consumer Products. Steve Lalla will be product leader for Mass Market Products, a group that will handle lower-end, voice-oriented phones.

Meanwhile, the newly consolidated GTM teams will be geared to listening to "the voice of the customer," according to Erickson.

The consolidated GTM team is envisioned as bringing "greater coordinating and consistency across the regions to meet customers' and consumers' needs," BetaNews was told. Bruce Brda will now head up Worldwide Sales and Operations, according to Erickson.

Todd DeYoung will take on new responsibilities in Portfolio Management, while continuing to lead Strategy, Applications & Services, while several other Motorola executives will remain in their current jobs under the reorganization.

oya? bagaimana kalo kita ganti kalimat "menghina dan menyudutkan suatu produk" dengan "let's accept fact of bye bye Moto"??

Bye Bye Moto? Motorola kan cuma terbagi doank dan ini belum bisa dikatakan bahwa Motorola gulung tikar. Kan Motorola sendiri belum umumin kalo mereka stop produksi hp cmiiw
