Orion Labs Finds $9M

San Francisco-based Orion Labs, a company developing personal communications devices which let users communicate as a group using voice, has raised $9M in a funding round. The funding came from Avalon Ventures and Motorola Solutions Venture Capital. Orion says it has now raised $16.25M in funding.
