9. Innovation is the key:

Motorola owned the market with its flip phones and then clam phones. Its set top box business is iconic in itself. Motorola’s legacy of being an innovator has been lost in the recent past. They could not keep up with the rapidly changing communications and electronic market.

We can expect Google to come to Motorola’s rescue and resurrect them. Google has the cash and Motorola’s investment budget can also be used to make breakthrough inventions. Google needs to bring back the innovation streak in Motorola to justify the high price they paid.
