Motorola, shaking up its wireless handset business, plans to ship its first phones based on Google’s Android software late next year. The company also put off a proposed spin out of that wireless unit as a separate business. That move, planned for the third quarter of next year, has been postponed due to both internal organizational issues and the down economy. Sales fell 31 percent to $3.1 billion in that unit during the quarter.
