So I've been reading today about the proposed spinning off of Motorola handsets division into a separate company; mystified why anyone would think this is a good idea, when clearly the right call is to fire Motorola CEO Greg Brown and just get someone competent to do his job.Well apparently I'm not alone in that point of view. Engadget has just posted this article about Brown that includes the following:
"...Motorola's current CEO, Greg Brown, is so technologically out of touch he refuses to use a computer for communications, and has all his email correspondences printed by his secretary and replied to by dictation."
Wow. My grandfather had his PC laying untouched for a year because he couldn't figure out where the on switch was and even he knows how to check his e-mail by now. You'd think the head of a major technology would at least know as much as my grandfather... geez.
Anyway, the Engadget piece continues with an open letter from former Motorola employee Numair Faraz, documenting all the places Motorola and specifically Brown have gone wrong since the golden days of the Motorola RAZR.
