"Motorola today confirmed, it will acquire Symbol Technologies Inc. for about US$ 3.9 billion in a deal that expands the world's second-largest cellphone maker's presence in the market for business-oriented mobile devices. The deal for Symbol, which makes portable bar-code scanners and customized (mostly Windows Mobile-based) handheld computers, is expected to close in late 2006 or early 2007, pending regulator clearance and approval by Symbol shareholders, company officials said."

Not sure how much this will affect the Smartphone world since Symbol Technologies mostly worked with Pocket PC devices, but it would be nice to have a couple bar-code scanners for our Smartphones. :)
