I wasn't talking about motorola's cell phones, doofus. Nor was I
talking about "trailers". I was talking about how they made the first
cable modems. How it was GI that made ALL satellite uplink encoders,
and how Motorola bought GI's telecomm division. How they have been
right in the thick of things from hollywood, right down to cable
companies, and even military and commercial stuff.

GM and Ford both use their equipment to train thousands of mechanics
AT their dealerships, via satellite.

You can bet that Motorola is going to be the biggest player, as they
already are.
