One of the other stories claimed they said it was because (last Thursday) the NYT and Ars Technica reported it. That's what Google said, but of course they didn't have to confirm the stories (and I think they haven't on previous occasions unless it suited them).

The crunch pad is due out soon and Apple is also believed to have a product in this space as well. If they put this out there now, any publicity for similar products on blogs and news articles will also likely have a blurb that "Google has also announced they will enter this competitive space..."
