He should reduce the 9 months to 6, then to 3, and then to launch. It will take a year or two, but the company will not look stagnent.

Apparently Ron Garriques, Moto’s Executive Vice President, Mobile Devices Business, told Bear Sterns that the Q’s sales performance can be compared to the steep, successful initial launch of the RAZR, and that they not only hope to drop the price to $50 after carrier subsidy by the end of 2006, but they’ll be launching a UMTS version when Verizon’s exclusivity contract on the device ends (as we’ve been expecting). Yeah, that’d be the same UMTS version that it was supposed to be around from the get go. Still, we’re assuming that exclusivity will last a good half year (quite literally a gadget lifetime to wait for us), after which time the UMTS Q will head to some mysterious, unknown network. Guess Ron wasn’t too firm a believer in Moto’s supposedly newly adopted announce-when-you-ship methodology, eh?
