Very interesting, that Google has found a way to allow the consumer to run any
Android app on any device, in spite of the hardware makers' best efforts to
keep things balkanized. I would not be surprised if we'll see lawsuits over
this.
Apple, and then Android, dropped Flash from their platforms, right? Even if
other Android platforms don't drop Chrome, Apple certainly could. Déjà vu all
over again.
