Even though Dell’s Venue Pro is doing pretty well, Dell will be shutting down it’s independent mobile division as it is not able to match the figures it was aiming for especially with models like the Dell Streak.Dell’s Mobile Division head Ron Garriques will be resigning from his post on January 28th 2011 and the division will be shut down. He will receive a payment of 1.44 Million US$ and other payments.
He will continue to provide Consulting Services to Dell till the end of 2011 for which he will receive an additional 6.3 Million US$.
The move does not mean Dell is stopping production or introduction of new smartphones, it’s just that the mobile division will be absorbed into the main company.
