The Modular mobile manufacturer seems to deliver more lay-off stories than sales stories.
The low sales rate in the Philippines and the unsuccessful attempts to raise more money led the company to lay-off about 100 workers almost half of the company. Who even remember what lay-offs cycle this one is.
Although the rumors are that Modu is working on a 3G device, a touch screen and Android powered, at the end of the day it is still a 2.5G device or a feature phone.
The Jackets that are out there do not transform the device into a music device or a smartphone,  so as for now the jackets are just about panels (did anyone say so nokia in 2000?).
This is a state of to be or to cease for Modu, it has to do some changes, more likely, drastic changes and it is not just about the burn rate or head count.
