     Inner-Ear Headset Delivers Comfortable, Crystal-Clear Communications

       Other Bluetooth(R) Innovations Expand Industry's Leading Line-Up

    LAS VEGAS, Jan. 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT)
today is unveiling the Motorola H5 Miniblue Bluetooth Headset, a
ground-breaking product that sets a new standard in miniaturization for
Bluetooth headset form and function.
    Motorola is showcasing Miniblue as part of its rapidly evolving vision of
Seamless Mobility at the 2006 International Consumer Electronics Show in
Central Hall Booth 8545, where visitors can experience innovations that enable
enriched wireless communications, home entertainment, and on-the-go
productivity.
    Both stylish and innovative, Miniblue is equipped with an in-ear speaker
and microphone that picks up your voice through your ear canal.  The design
greatly reduces ambient noise and enables crystal-clear communications in
noisy environments.  Weighing only 0.26 ounces and measuring 33 x 41
millimeters in diameter, the H5 Miniblue headset is small enough to ensure a
comfortable in-ear fit.
    "Miniblue takes Motorola's Bluetooth leadership to the next level and
brings the benefits of this technology to consumers in new ways," said Bruce
Hawver, vice president and general manager, Companion Products Group,
Motorola, Inc.  "Miniblue's breakthrough design embodies our passion for
delivering wickedly cool and compelling devices and experiences in wireless
communications."
    Motorola's smallest Bluetooth headset to date, this petite and discreet
powerhouse comes equipped with a portable charging base to re-charge on the
fly and provide protection when the headset is not in use.  The Miniblue with
its portable case makes an elegant and stylish solution for seamless
communication.

    New Additions Join Miniblue and Expand Line-up
    In addition to Miniblue, Motorola is also unveiling a variety of other
Bluetooth enabled innovations that expand its industry-leading portfolio of
