Competitor Phone

So I was doing some research at work for ideas and concepts for the phone that I'm working on. I came across something I thought was interesting and showed it to my manager. I can't give any detail about why it was interesting, but my manager thought it showed some promise as well and told me to submit a request to purchase 2 of these competitor phones. Now he's letting me use one of them to get a feel for it and see what I like and don't like about it. He is also getting me a data plan, which only managers at Motorola get that lets me access the internet. I'm pretty excited to have this opportunity to give feedback on a concept and use a $700 phone for "work".

A Visit From David Beckham

David Beckham came and visited Motorola a couple of weeks ago. He is one of Motorola's famous celebrities who pushes our merchandise. It was pretty neat to be so close to someone famous, I was sitting about 15-20 feet away. It was a very intimate atmosphere, he was being interviewed by somebody important at Motorola (no idea who he is, but from Britain also). It kind of felt like being on Oprah, they were sitting in two comfy leather sofa chairs and just talking and watching videos of David Beckham playing soccer. He was there to talk about being successful on a team and how that can relate to our work "teams". David seemed like a really nice guy and down to earth. I felt bad that I was the one who got to go because Spencer would have enjoyed it way more than me. But I was glad that I got to go and tell him all about it, because I don't think I would have gone if Spencer didn't think he was so cool.
