"Although they may be rivals in the mobile phone industry, Samsung and Motorola announced a deal on Friday that will allow them to share technology between the two companies. The move is in an effort to prevent legal issues related to each other's intellectual property, or IP."

Motorola and Samsung are have decided to play nice with each other. I wonder what impacts this might have on the future of mobile phones? Perhaps we will see some of Samsung's display technology on a Motorola phone?

Samsung has the i600 flip phone - I wouldn't really call it a MPx-form factor device. They also have the new i300 and a couple Pocket PC devices.

Well we now have Motorola who makes phones that don't work, and we have Samsung, who usually make pretty ugly phones. Now we can buy ugly phones that don't work :lol:
