It's one thing to decide that it's best to be a rather boring but successful company [1]. It's quite another to realize that a rival, say, Apple [2], has taken your place as the "cool phone" maker for most of the market.

Only the market will decide whether the new phones will be seen as the coolest yet, but Motorola is getting the phones ready.
