The Fall of Motorola

Scathing open letter from former Motorola advisor Numair Faraz to CEO Greg Brown. Regarding Geoffrey Frost, who spearheaded the original RAZR:

Many close to Geoffrey believed Ed Zander worked him to death, putting the pressure of the fate of the company in his hands. I took his untimely death in 2005 very hard, and knew that the company would head downhill in the aftermath. On a personal note, Lynne, his wife blamed the company for his passing. She committed suicide soon after.

Jiminy.
