R&D;expenditure is always very significant % of total.
As Motorola is not the market leader in cell-phone technology, it will just be playing catch-up with technology, and spending huge sums of cash (certainly cannot afford this any longer). There are companies that specialize in Telecom research and sell ready made solutions under IP (like Sasken which powers the Z8, Z10). So it will be best for Motorola to go and buy the latest R&D;products and integrate the best into their phones.
Having worked with a couple of these guys, I can say that motorola will now completely fail. Morons…all of them
Motorola is doing the right thing.
