Since Google is already blowing away Apple and Microsoft in phone sales and marketshare by huge margins, they should take this newly aquired patents and toys and not litigate, but innovate.

Innovate those bastards off the market. Make the devices have great capabilities, clean up the OS, bring some quality to the look and style and get those activations up to a million+ per day.

Google and the other OEM who support them have been trying to avoid these stupid patent disputes that doesn't mean jack. Microsoft and Apple are both just mad they decided to not have an open platform that either people cant have or really want and thus have to go against the winning guys.

Microsoft entered the game late and thus just wants a piece of the pie, and Apple who knows what the hell they want. They want to own a market they didnt invent and can't stand the fact they are losing.

All 3 each own one good market, yet 2 of them are just greedy @$$ losers who can't handled getting their ass kicked.

At least by 2014, one of the won't even be a heavy contender anymore. Android is going to dominate until at least then.

Google/Motorola was as good as a deal as Microsoft/Nokia. But owning could be better than buying in the long run.

I am with QUADICON. In a world where companies have more power than small developed countries, having companies like Google is a great relieve.

I remember the Windows Intel (WinTel) Monopoly days and don't want to go back. Please don't make me go back !

Please. Google's the same, another giant corporation. They don't care about privacy, etc., besides making a buck (on search or whatever). It's time people stop falling in love with brands and see them as the non-personal entities they are.

No, they're not people.
