Running a group about android at German business network "Xing" i followed this discussion with special interest.
In my opinion Google is shortly running out of time. The idea of a mobile opensource os is great, but competitors don´t sleep. Nokia already reacted and annouced, that they will buy Symbian completely and transfere it into an opensoure license. Long term projects like openmoko or LiMo foundation are also on the way. Success of android depends on the global developer community and its steps to develop extraordinary applications (groupware, games, etc.) and for this they need a stable sdk. Without it (and a fitting hardware platform for testing) android will loose contact with the other projects - and will loose the run. So simple it is...
