manufacturers are going full steam ahead with android as their only os? I think meego, webOS or other os's are going to be used more in the future. Android is going to lose marketshare in 2012.
Oracle is currently suing not manufacturers but Google directly for the unlicensed use of the Java technology (which it acquired together with Sun).
i don't think they intend to stop Android, but getting a (free) income from a successful operation is always attractive.
remains to be seen how Google is going to translate the charges if they have to pay
