Chris Burns, Jan 22nd 2013 Discuss [0]

This week after Google’s quarterly earnings statement for their financial Q4 2012, the company’s Senior Vice President and CFO Patrick Pichette made it clear that their still relatively new ownership of Motorola includes no less than 12 months of product pipeline put in place before they got there.
