Motorola Solutions has continued to make changes to PartnerEmpower since its early 2011 split from Motorola Mobility, now part of Google.
Among the changes have been a firmer embrace of software-centric channel partners that can provide value-add to Motorola products such as the ET1 Android tablet and the RhoElements application framework for launching mobile apps.
PartnerEmpower was conceived in 2009 and launched in early 2010. It originally was designed as a complete overhaul of Motorola's channel programs and a way to better organize its partners into three principal product areas: Radio Solutions, Mobile Solutions and Wireless Network Solutions. Partners are awarded points based on their levels of partnership in these areas and on their specializations in technology and vertical markets such as health care or federal government. Those points translate into more partner resources and better pricing, among other benefits.
Motorola had a few additional updates to share this week: the launch of its new partner portal, PartnerCentral, and that it is now basing participation in its Wireless Network Solutions specialization on four technology segments -- converged communication, wireless local area networks, wireless outdoor networks and wireless security. Partner benefits for Wireless Network Solutions will be determined based on how partners play in those areas.
"We're going to keep building PartnerEmpower linearly," Kroh said. "The goal since the split has been to be a complete solutions company, and that's what we're focused on."

Verizon is reportedly planning to commence the over-the-air Android 4.0.4 update for Motorola Droid Razr and Razr Maxx on June 12.
Motorola had previously said that the update to the Ice Cream Sandwich would be carried out during the second quarter of this year. Given that it is already June 7, cnet reported that an update available from June 12 is a delay because of the need to update servers.
Currently the two Droids are running on Android 2.3.6. After a lot of updates were added to the operating system, the latest version of Android, the Ice Cream Sandwich, has been fully anticipated by the Droid owners. Android 4.0.4 was released at the end of March.
The Ice Cream Sandwich update is said to bring substantial enhancements by numerous features, such as the integrated screenshot capture and the ability to access apps directly from lock screen. Other interesting functions include Wi-Fi Direct, a Wi-Fi connection without wireless access points, and near-field-communication feature Android Beam.
As the flagship handset of Motorola, the Droid Razr was the thinnest smartphone in the world when it was launched. It also boasts a 4.3-inch qHD Super AMOLED Advanced display with 960 by 540 pixels. The smartphone is 4G LTE-capable and was carried by Verizon Wireless.
