<<Motorola said it is working with Spyglass Inc.>>

Spyglass!!!?

They're the rubes who made a deal with MSFT to develop a rival browser against Netscape with a piddly couple hundred thousand upfront and a promise of a percentage of profits from sales.

Of course any percentage of zero sales is zero. So when MSFT announce they were giving away Internet Explorer, they got hung out to dry.

I was suprised they didn't go bankrupt from fighting with MSFT's lawyers!
