To be clear: Google is not selling Android, does not make money off of people using the Android platform, and does not own Android. They just happen to be spending a lot of money to pay many engineers to work on Android, producing a lot of code that everyone else can freely use. -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer hack...@android.com Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support.
