The support will come in only if one of android running phones leap frogs the existing mobiles by a huge margin. That would compel google to shift to a strategy that would include 'marriage' with a device and less chaotic market presence. Google is better at dealing with uncertain or probabilistic business strategies. They have more faith in fragmented strategies. Apple is linear because it can afford to be. And it has paid off so far. Learning from other consumer markets like cars makes me believe android powered phones will offer consumers choice. However I do believe the Rolls Royce of the mobile market will be the iPhone for sometime to come.
