The way I heard it, from a source who _really_ should know, is that Motorola
has redesigned the internal "thing" that Hitachi used as their big stick.  The
redesign is a Motorola original (as much as anything is original these days)
and is proven in silicon ... meaning production is anytime Motorola wants.  So,
Hitachi had choices to make.  In the end, the new Motorola thing is better,
faster, etc., ad nosium.  The problem in being around two companies stirring
this pot of sh*t wildly is that some of it splashed on to us users ... that
stinks!
