Motorola Q4 results: good, but not good enough
18% growth and a few "millimeters" from analysts' expectations still made the share drop by 5%.
This is of course a concrete risk factor:
Analysts questioned whether Motorola could sustain its momentum without a successor to the Razr -- the ultra-slim mobile phone that is one of the most popular models among upscale buyers -- as its competitors start selling similar thin phones.
Motorola now controls 19 percent of the worldwide handset market, the company said, keeping it in the No. 2 position after Finnish company Nokia.
