Google has got its own technologies and its architectural perspectives, and clearly neither Java or JavaFX are part of its client perspective. It's quite clear they are creating a client architecture based on JavaScript for the desktop and Android for the mobile/netbook/whatever; and Google Chrome is their JavaScript client container, that would give them control. From their perspective, why the heck should they give up and give control back to Sun, considering that they have scarce influence in the Java evolution?
