You think Google will share future plans etc. with all of those? Might as well broadcast it on Google.com since Apple, MS,HP, RIM, etc. will anyway get wind of it.
Reminds me of the Windows 95 and MS Office fiasco which resulted in Word Perfect suing them.
- sjs382 15y agoThey'll likely get the same access they've always had (which for some of them will be zero access).
- recoiledsnake 15y agoWhile at the same time, the Moto Mobility division gets 100% access and a big influence in the direction?
- sjs382 15y agoThere are two different issues you're trying to discuss here, and it's getting muddled. [1] The degree of Motorola's access/influence and the degree of the partners' (HTC/LG/Samsung/Etc) access/influence. We don't know what will happen, but it's likely that the partners will have the same access and influence to Google/Android that they always did. Google is going to "run Motorola as a separate business". [2] The non-partners that don't license android still won't have any access/influence. The fact that non-partners won't gain more access/influence to Google/Android because of the acquisition is a non-story. Also a non-story: pigs wont fly as a result of this acquisition.
