Motorola To Consider Separating Mobile Phone Unit MOT Jan 2009 17.5000 call (VMAAW) #msg-26305111 will be looking good :) Motorola Inc. (MOT), apparently bowing to pressure to consider breaking apart the company, said late Thursday that it may separate its struggling cellphone division from its other businesses.
Such a move would be aimed at turning around a unit that produced just over half of Motorola's revenue in 2007, down from two-thirds of its revenue in 2006, and improving the value of the company's shares.
