Motorola split into two groups today in order to save their falling mobile business, but the real kicker is an insider's email that Engadget published. It has it all, from suicides to golf scores and how all that brought a giant down. Good afternoon reading, albeit sad. Update: My personal rant/editorial on the situation, describing the failure of Motorola to understand the importance of their EZX Linux-based phones and how this drove their business down.

"They just get recycled over and over and over ending up with the same failures. But I can't blame them. The blame should fall squarely on the idiots who put them in charge."
I could not agree more. The worst part is when they fail, they STILL get paid millions to leave. Hell, if it was me I would be lucky to get 2 weeks pay. They can't be blamed for doing it, because they get rewarded for doing it. What a system eh?
