 Though the split was originally planned for 2009, it was not actually executed until 2011.In January 2011, Motorola split into two separate companies, each still using the word Motorola as part of its name.One company, Motorola Solutions (using a blue version of the Motorola logo), is based in downtown Chicago after moving recently from Schaumburg Il, and concentrates on police technologies, radios, and commercial needs.
