Motorola To Introduce 20 New Cell Phones
Motorola Inc., which is introducing 20 new cell phones as it tries to avoid slipping to No. 3 in the market, signaled its confidence Wednesday for strong holiday sales and said there are no further product delays in sight.
Source: eWeekThe company said its much-hyped new $900 Razr phone is "flying off the shelves" abroad as it nears its U.S. launch. A year ago, Motorola's holidays were spoiled by a parts shortage and resulting shipment delays that kept some of its first camera phones—already behind its competitors'—from being available during the biggest season for cell-phone sales. Ron Garriques, executive vice president in charge of the company's handset division, assured analysts there won't be a recurrence of those problems in this year's fourth quarter. "Across all of the technologies and across all of the price tiers, we're expecting very strong holiday sales," he said on a conference call. "We're performing to plan on all of our Q4 product launches. We don't have any delays. There's no component or supply issues."
