It looks like Sanyo finally did it:  they sold their good quality bad selling mobile market to Kyocera for a hefty sum of $375 million.  They will keep the Sanyo brand on its handsets and I will be honest, it will help Kyocera build a better phone overall.  They will be able to overhaul a few of their phones and start to come into larger markets like the European and US markets where it once had a small following.  They will close the deal on April 1…April fools day! hehe
