Motorola turns up the heat on RIM

Today, Motorola announced the new Photon 4G, a high-end smartphone sporting the latest and greatest Google Android software and packed with a slew of new security features that could make it an attractive BlackBerry killer for Sprint customers.
"Our enterprise customers definitely have more choices now," said David Owens, a product development executive at Sprint. "Motorola and really all the Android players are putting pressure on RIM. But the Photon 4G in particular has a lot of great enterprise security features like remote wipe and VPN support that business customers will really like."
RIM made a name for itself over the past decade doing mobile e-mail better than anyone else. CIOs and IT departments trusted the reliability and security of the BlackBerry devices and the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
But RIM has not kept up with its competitors in terms of new devices and features. And as a result, the company's market share has plummeted over the past several quarters. A recent survey by ComScore had the company slip to third place in terms of smartphones behind Apple and Google Android.
the Photon 4G is also a world phone with support for CDMA and GSM technologies. This means it can still appeal to the frequent work traveler. Like the Motorola Atrix developed for AT&T, the Photon 4G also can connect into an accessory dock so that you can open, view, edit, and send Microsoft Office documents using a Web app through a browser.
In addition to all its "work" features, the Photon 4G also sports a dual-core processor, an 8-megapixel camera with dual LED flash, a front-facing VGA camera, and a 4.3 inch touch screen. And it runs the latest generation of Google Android software. The phone can also be used as a 3G/4G hot spot and can connect up to eight devices using Wi-Fi.

How would you compare them to pioneering capitalists of the past, such as Andrew Carnegie and Henry Ford?
