may 29, 1930 - First Car Radio:
In 1930 Galvin Manufacturing Corporation
introduced the Motorola radio, one of the
first commercially successful car radios.
Company founder Paul V. Galvin created
the brand name Motorola for the car
radio -- linking "motor" (for motorcar) with
"ola" (which implied sound). Thus the
Motorola brand meant sound in motion.
