Ed Zander, Motorola's CEO, has agreed to step down from his post effective January 1. Zander has been with Motorola since January 2004. Motorola has had a tough year and seen sales figures and revenues drop over the last 12 months. The handset division will close out 2007 at a loss. The company recently slipped to the world's third largest supplier of mobile phones, behind Nokia and Samsung. Some Motorola shareholders have been pushing for a change in leadership. Zander will be replaced by Motorola's COO Greg Brown. Zander will remain as the chairman of the board until May 2008.

I don't know about that - Motorola's phones are typically rated the best on this board for Reception and Call Quality. Maybe a new CEO will cut costs by reducing those. :-(

Terrible Moto reliability and bugs galore is what's REALLY making ppl run screaming from Motorola. 😲

Good point, and I totally agree. When you put out good, RELIABLE, products, people will support your business.
not really a new era.. greg brown has held the reins at the company for almost a year under Zander as COO and prior to that led their infrastructure group for a while too..
