DigiTimes is reporting that Motorola has suspended their order for the MPx100 smartphone with Compal Communications. While this doesn't mean the smartphone is dead, it's not a good sign either. The report goes on to say that orders for the MPx and MPx220 are still going as planned.


  


From the report:


Motorola is postponing ODM orders for its MPx100 smartphone to Compal Communications, according to local sources. Compal declined to comment on the news.
