Bill Stone has already had one tough job thrust upon him when he was named CEO of the troubled Amp'd Mobile, and Qualcomm seems to think that he's the guy to handle another pretty difficult task, with the company recently naming him president of FLO TV, not to mention senior vice president of Qualcomm. Stone, who's currently the CEO of mobile software firm Handango, will be replacing Gina Lombardi, who had been heading up Qualcomm's mobile TV initiatives for the past three years, and will apparently be staying on with Qualcomm in some other, unspecified capacity. No word on what the move means for Handango, but Stone will officially be taking the reins at FLO TV on February 2nd.
great lets drive qualcomm into the ground too lol
What do you get when you combine a bad economy, a failed company CEO, and combine it with a TV medium that has not caught on in the slightest?
Qualcomm FLO TV!
This will be dead by 2010!
Poor people over at Handango. I hope they're coping alright.
