Can Android be Microsoft’s next $1 billion business? from GigaOM — Tech News, Analysis and Trends by Ryan Kim http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/OmMalik/~3/IhK8vsthuFA/
It's ironic that Microsoft has beat Oracle to the punch so far as finding a way to get a cut of the Android action. (It would be a further irony that if after passage of five years Microsoft earns more revenue from Android than Windows Phone 7.) But if Oracle does end up with any success per its lawsuit against Google, Android OEMs could find themselves getting "paper cuts" from multiple license fees that have to be dolled out. That could end up shaving some luster off of the Android platform. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
