Motorola Changes Logo And Color, It is Red And Makes You Want To Eat At McDonallds!

#Motorola Changes Logo And Color, It is Red And Makes You Want To Eat At McDonallds! http://snapvoip.blogspot.com/
Engadget people have uncovered the new logo of Motorola for the coming year. The Google Ally and Android phone maker will have a bright red logo from the start of the year, 2011 and some how the logo reminded me of the McDonald arches for some reason :). I know I am hungry for Droids but I think I will eat at Samsung, after reading and reading and waiting for Google Nexus S.

But it is not only the logo that is changing, as you may already know, Motorola will split into two entities;

Motorola, in November announced that its board of directors has approved the separation of Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. ("Motorola Mobility") from Motorola, Inc. through a tax-free dividend involving the distribution of all Motorola Mobility common stock held by Motorola to Motorola stockholders and has also approved a reverse stock split of shares of Motorola common stock following the distribution. As a result, the following will occur:
* Motorola Mobility distribution ratio will be 1 share for every 8 shares of Motorola common stock
* Motorola, Inc. reverse stock split ratio will be 1 share for every 7 shares of Motorola common stock
* Motorola, Inc. to change name to Motorola Solutions, Inc.
