"Google has apps for pretty much all the most important functions on a phone or tablet — email, messaging, maps, storage, browsing, reading the news, finding and consuming media — and they are interlocked so that tasks flow naturally from one app to the next."

Interlocked?

Wouldn't it be great if there were tech journalists that knew the first thing about Android?

We joke about Apple controlling their software, but Google is moving toward the same. The Android fracturing is getting to them.

I wonder if Google's Motorola sell off was a part of this bargain. It seems oddly coincidental.
