"Moto pushed 40.9 million of them in the quarter -- with 53 percent sold in North America"
It's interesting that the US is Motorola's biggest handset market, yet all their cool new phones (such as the models reported on this fine site) are available to Asian markets first before making their way to the states, if at all. I'm not sure why this is, perhaps because Moto wants to field test their products in smaller markets before delivering them to American consumers, but I'm not sure that is a strategy that is necessary (look at Apple).
